Communal fire doors in Farnborough: how we work
We fit communal corridor and lobby fire doors in Farnborough and the rest of Hampshire. 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.
Farnborough is about 39 miles from Southampton. Wherever your building is in GU14, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
