Communal fire doors in Scarborough: how we work
For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in Scarborough, we provide communal corridor and lobby fire doors with one fixed quote. A free survey comes first, then a door-by-door schedule, then installation to the manufacturer's instructions and a handover pack for your records.
Where possible we combine Scarborough surveys with other visits in North Yorkshire, such as Bridlington and Beverley, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Regulations for communal fire doors in North Yorkshire
Because Scarborough 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.
Guide prices in Scarborough
Our guide price for communal fire doors in Scarborough is £1,600 to £3,200 per pair including fitting, ex VAT. Non-standard sizes, veneers, vision panels and access control push towards the top of the range.
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.

Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Scarborough.
How quickly can you survey in Scarborough?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Scarborough visits with other work in North Yorkshire. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
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.
