Our Portslade supply and fit service
We cover Portslade and nearby Hove for double fire doors, with surveys booked around your building's access and occupancy. Each door is quoted individually, so you can see what every opening costs and why.
Where possible we combine Portslade surveys with other visits in East Sussex, such as Hove and Brighton, which helps keep survey dates flexible.

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.
