Communal fire doors in Thamesmead

Our Thamesmead supply and fit service

We fit communal corridor and lobby fire doors in Thamesmead and the rest of Greater London. The process is simple: we survey and measure each opening, propose a certified doorset for it, and give you a fixed price. Fitting is booked once the doorsets are made, usually with no door left out of action overnight.

We cover SE28 and the surrounding area, including Barking. Tell us your postcode and preferred dates and we'll confirm a survey slot.

Which rules apply in Thamesmead?

Fire doors in Thamesmead sit under English rules: Approved Document B sets what goes in, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 covers keeping doors effective in non-domestic premises and shared parts of residential buildings, and the 2022 regulations require regular door checks in residential buildings taller than 11 metres. Higher-risk buildings — 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes — also come under the Building Safety Act 2022.
