Our Macclesfield supply and fit service
We fit double and leaf-and-a-half fire doorsets in Macclesfield and the rest of Cheshire. 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.
Where possible we combine Macclesfield surveys with other visits in Cheshire, such as Wilmslow and Congleton, which helps keep survey dates flexible.

Double fire doors in Macclesfield: questions
Is the survey in Macclesfield free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Macclesfield.
Can you fit just one door in Macclesfield?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Cheshire.
Why does my double fire door not close properly?
Usually the door selector is missing or out of adjustment, or the leaves have dropped. Pairs need the inactive leaf to close first.
