Your questions answered

Do you remove the old doors?

Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Hartlepool.

Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Hartlepool?

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 Hartlepool?

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.
