Communal & Corridor Fire Doors for Kent buildings
Across Kent we handle communal fire doors for single doors and whole-building programmes alike — survey, fixed quote, certified doorsets and careful installation.
Fire door rules in Kent
Because Kent 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.
Cost of communal fire doors in Kent
Budget around £1,600 to £3,200 per pair for communal fire doors supplied and fitted in Kent, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
If your fire risk assessment lists specific doors, send it with your enquiry and we'll price exactly those openings.

Communal fire doors in Kent: questions
Do you cover the whole of Kent?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit communal fire doors across Kent, including Maidstone, Gillingham and Chatham.
Can you work around tenants or staff?
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 Kent?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine visits with other work in Kent. 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.
