Our Shrewsbury supply and fit service
We fit communal corridor and lobby fire doors in Shrewsbury and the rest of Shropshire. The process is simple: we survey and measure each opening, propose a certified doorset for it, and give you a fixed price. Fitting is booked once the doorsets are made, usually with no door left out of action overnight.
Shrewsbury is about 13 miles from Telford. Wherever your building is in SY1, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
