Communal & Corridor Fire Doors for Pimlico buildings
Need communal fire doors in Pimlico? We supply and fit complete certified doorsets across Greater London, starting with a free measure survey in and around SW1V. Every quote lists each door, its rating and the manufacturer's certificate reference, so you know exactly what is going in before anything is ordered.
Where possible we combine Pimlico surveys with other visits in Greater London, such as Westminster and Battersea, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
What the law says in Pimlico
New and replacement fire doors in Pimlico are specified under the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep fire doors in working order, and in residential buildings with a storey above 11 metres regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds quarterly checks of communal doors and annual checks of flat entrance doors.
Guide prices in Pimlico
Our guide for communal fire doors is £1,600–£3,200 per pair fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for Pimlico 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.

Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Pimlico?
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.
How quickly can you survey in Pimlico?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Pimlico visits with other work in Greater London. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Should communal doors be glazed?
Doors across corridors usually need vision panels so people can see who is on the other side. The glass must be tested in that doorset.
