Getting composite fire doors fitted in Canterbury
We fit certified composite fire doors in Canterbury and the rest of Kent. 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 CT1 and the surrounding area, including Whitstable. Tell us your postcode and preferred dates and we'll confirm a survey slot.
What the law says in Canterbury
Because Canterbury 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 composite fire doors cost in Canterbury?
Guide prices for composite fire doors in Canterbury run from about £1,200 to £2,200 per door, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.
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.
