Getting commercial fire doors fitted in Reading
For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in Reading, we provide commercial and office fire doorsets with one fixed quote. A free survey comes first, then a door-by-door schedule, then installation to the manufacturer's instructions and a handover pack for your records.
Surveys in Reading are booked around your access needs, and we cover the wider Berkshire area too.
Which rules apply in Reading?
In Reading, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.

Commercial fire doors in Reading: questions
Can you work around tenants or staff in Reading?
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.
Which rules do commercial fire doors in Reading need to meet?
They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Reading?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Can I add access control to my fire doors?
Yes, using hardware covered by the doorset's evidence. Retro-fitting untested components can void certification.
