Fire door rules in Essex
Because Essex 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 fire doors for homes cost in Essex?
Expect roughly £650–£1,000 per door for fire doors for homes, fitted, ex VAT. Your Essex quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover the whole of Essex?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit fire doors for homes across Essex, including Southend-on-Sea, Basildon and Colchester.
Which rules apply in Essex?
Doors are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset.
Do I need fire doors in my house?
Not usually in a two-storey house. Three-storey houses and loft conversions normally need fire-resisting doors onto the stair, and an integral garage door should be FD30S.
