Fire door rules in Peckham
In Peckham, 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.
Guide prices in Peckham
Our guide for communal fire doors is £1,600–£3,200 per pair fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for Peckham are fixed once we've measured, and include removing and disposing of old doors where they're being replaced.
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.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.
Where communal fire doors are used in Peckham
Hotels and blocks of flats are among the most common settings for communal fire doors, in Peckham as elsewhere.
London has the UK's largest concentration of purpose-built flats and high-rise residential blocks, so flat entrance doors, communal corridor doors and regulation 10 checks drive much of the demand.

Communal fire doors in Peckham: questions
Can you work around tenants or staff in Peckham?
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.
Is the survey in Peckham free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Can you fit just one door in Peckham?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Greater London.
Can communal fire doors be held open?
Only with an approved hold-open or free-swing device linked to the fire alarm. Wedges and hooks are not acceptable.
