Which rules apply in Reading?
New and replacement fire doors in Reading are specified under the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep fire doors in working order, and in residential buildings with a storey above 11 metres regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds quarterly checks of communal doors and annual checks of flat entrance doors.

Composite fire doors in Reading: questions
Can you fit just one door in Reading?

Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Reading?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.

A composite door with current third-party certification for its configuration is as reliable as any other certified fire door. Ask for the certificate reference — we provide it on every quote.
