Fire door rules in Southport
Because Southport is in England, the starting point is Approved Document B for the specification and the Fire Safety Order 2005 for ongoing duties. Blocks with a storey above 11 metres also fall under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: communal fire doors checked at least every three months, flat front doors at least every year.

Common questions in Merseyside
Can you fit just one door in Southport?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Merseyside.
How quickly can you survey in Southport?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Southport visits with other work in Merseyside. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Southport?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
Are acoustic fire doors heavier?
Yes, usually, so they may need stronger closers and hinges.
