Our Telford supply and fit service
We fit communal corridor and lobby fire doors in Telford 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.
We cover Telford and the rest of Shropshire, with surveys arranged around your building's access and occupancy.
Which rules apply in Telford?

Higher-risk buildings — 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes — also come under the Building Safety Act 2022.
