Our Devon supply and fit service
Throughout Devon, including Plymouth, Exeter and Paignton, we survey, quote and fit communal corridor and lobby fire doors as complete certified doorsets, with the manufacturer's certificate reference on every quote.
Fire door rules in Devon
Because Devon 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.
What do communal fire doors cost in Devon?
Budget around £1,600 to £3,200 per pair for communal fire doors supplied and fitted in Devon, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.
