Fire door rules in Lincoln
Because Lincoln 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 Lincoln?
Our guide for communal fire doors is £1,600–£3,200 per pair fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for Lincoln are fixed once we've measured, and include removing and disposing of old doors where they're being replaced.
Made-to-measure sizes for older openings, vision panels and upgraded hardware are the usual reasons a door sits towards the top of the range.

Your questions answered
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Lincoln.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Lincoln?
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.
Do you cover Lincoln?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit communal fire doors throughout Lincoln and the rest of Lincolnshire, including LN6 and nearby Gainsborough.
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.
