Fire doors for homes in Rochester: how we work
We fit fire doors for loft conversions, garages and family homes in Rochester 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 ME1 and the surrounding area, including Chatham. Tell us your postcode and preferred dates and we'll confirm a survey slot.

Because Rochester 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.
