Double & Leaf-and-a-Half Fire Doors for Runcorn buildings
Getting double fire doors right in Runcorn 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.

Common questions in Cheshire
Do you cover Runcorn?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit double fire doors throughout Runcorn and the rest of Cheshire, including WA7 and nearby Widnes.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Runcorn?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Runcorn?
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.
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.
