Getting communal fire doors fitted in Mitcham
Getting communal fire doors right in Mitcham means choosing a certified doorset for each opening and fitting it exactly as tested. That's the whole service: survey, schedule, certified doorset, careful installation and the paperwork to prove it.
Mitcham is about 7 miles from London. Wherever your building is in CR4, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
What the law says in Mitcham
In Mitcham, 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.
Cost of communal fire doors in Greater London
Expect roughly £1,600–£3,200 per pair for communal fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Mitcham quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
Central and inner London work can cost a little more where parking, loading restrictions or out-of-hours access apply; we show any access costs as a separate line.
If your fire risk assessment lists specific doors, send it with your enquiry and we'll price exactly those openings.

Your questions answered
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Mitcham.
Which rules do communal fire doors in Mitcham 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.
Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Mitcham?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Do you replace doors while the building is occupied?
Yes. We phase work so escape routes are maintained, and plan each door to be removed and replaced the same day. If that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
