Communal fire doors in Fleetwood: how we work

Looking for communal fire doors in Fleetwood? Our supply and fit service covers FY7 and the surrounding area, including Thornton-Cleveleys and Blackpool. We quote complete doorsets — leaf, frame, seals, hinges and closer — because that is what the fire certification actually covers.

Fleetwood is about 17 miles from Preston; we cover both, along with Thornton-Cleveleys, Blackpool and Morecambe.

Regulations for communal fire doors in Lancashire

Because Fleetwood 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.
