Our Leicester supply and fit service
Looking for communal fire doors in Leicester? Our supply and fit service covers LE1 and the surrounding area, including Oadby and Wigston. We quote complete doorsets — leaf, frame, seals, hinges and closer — because that is what the fire certification actually covers.
Surveys in Leicester are booked around your access needs, and we cover the wider Leicestershire area too.
Fire door rules in Leicester
Because Leicester 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.
What do communal fire doors cost in Leicester?
Guide prices for communal fire doors in Leicester run from about £1,600 to £3,200 per pair, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.
We show each door's price separately, so if budget is tight you can phase the work and start with the doors your fire risk assessment prioritises.

Your questions answered
Can you fit just one door in Leicester?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Leicestershire.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Leicester.
Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Leicester?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Do you replace doors while the building is occupied?
Yes. We phase work so escape routes are maintained, and plan each door to be removed and replaced the same day. If that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
