Fire doors for homes in Chelsea: how we work
Getting fire doors for homes right in Chelsea means choosing a certified doorset for each opening and fitting it exactly as tested. That's the whole service: survey, schedule, certified doorset, careful installation and the paperwork to prove it.
Chelsea is about 2 miles from London; we cover both, along with Battersea, Fulham and Pimlico.
Regulations for fire doors for homes in Greater London
Because Chelsea 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 Chelsea?
Our guide for fire doors for homes is £650–£1,000 per door fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for Chelsea are fixed once we've measured, and include removing and disposing of old doors where they're being replaced.
Central and inner London work can cost a little more where parking, loading restrictions or out-of-hours access apply; we show any access costs as a separate line.
We show each door's price separately, so if budget is tight you can phase the work and start with the doors your fire risk assessment prioritises.
Where fire doors for homes are needed
Basement conversions and three-storey new builds are among the most common settings for fire doors for homes, in Chelsea as elsewhere.
London has the UK's largest concentration of purpose-built flats and high-rise residential blocks, so flat entrance doors, communal corridor doors and regulation 10 checks drive much of the demand.

Fire doors for homes in Chelsea: questions
Which rules do fire doors for homes in Chelsea need to meet?
They 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 cover Chelsea?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit fire doors for homes throughout Chelsea and the rest of Greater London, including SW3 and nearby Battersea.
Can you fit just one door in Chelsea?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Greater London.
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.
