Regulations for communal fire doors in Greater London
Because South Croydon 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.
Guide prices in South Croydon
Guide prices for communal fire doors in South Croydon run from about £1,600 to £3,200 per pair, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.
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.
We show each door's price separately, so if budget is tight you can phase the work and start with the doors your fire risk assessment prioritises.
Where communal fire doors are used in South Croydon
Student accommodation and sheltered and supported housing are among the most common settings for communal fire doors, in South Croydon 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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover South Croydon?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit communal fire doors throughout South Croydon and the rest of Greater London, including CR2 and nearby Croydon.
Can you work around tenants or staff in South Croydon?
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.
Can you fit just one door in South Croydon?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Greater London.
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.
