Fire Doors for Homes for Chatham buildings
Looking for fire doors for homes in Chatham? Our supply and fit service covers ME4 and the surrounding area, including Rochester and Gillingham. We quote complete doorsets — leaf, frame, seals, hinges and closer — because that is what the fire certification actually covers.
Where possible we combine Chatham surveys with other visits in Kent, such as Rochester and Gillingham, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
What the law says in Chatham
Because Chatham 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.
