Getting communal fire doors fitted in Wembley
We fit communal corridor and lobby fire doors in Wembley 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 HA0 and the surrounding area, including Brent. Tell us your postcode and preferred dates and we'll confirm a survey slot.
Regulations for communal fire doors in Greater London
In Wembley, 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 Wembley 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.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.
Typical uses in Wembley
Hotels and student accommodation are among the most common settings for communal fire doors, in Wembley 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.

Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Wembley.
Which rules do communal fire doors in Wembley 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.

In England, regulation 10 requires at least three-monthly checks in residential buildings with a storey above 11 metres. Good practice is regular checks in all buildings.
