Fire doors for homes in Tyne and Wear: how we work
Across Tyne and Wear we handle fire doors for homes for single doors and whole-building programmes alike — survey, fixed quote, certified doorsets and careful installation.
Which rules apply in Tyne and Wear?
New and replacement fire doors in Tyne and Wear are specified under the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep fire doors in working order, and in residential buildings with a storey above 11 metres regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds quarterly checks of communal doors and annual checks of flat entrance doors.
Cost of fire doors for homes in Tyne and Wear
Our guide for fire doors for homes is £650–£1,000 per door fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for Tyne and Wear are fixed once we've measured, and include removing and disposing of old doors where they're being replaced.
Each quote covers the certified doorset, standard ironmongery, fitting, removal of the old door and a handover record; anything outside that scope is shown as a separate line before you accept.

Your questions answered
How quickly can you survey in Tyne and Wear?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine visits with other work in Tyne and Wear. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Is the survey free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Can you work around tenants or staff?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
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.
