Double fire doors in Brent: how we work
We fit double and leaf-and-a-half fire doorsets in Brent and the rest of Greater London. 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.
Brent is about 8 miles from London. Wherever your building is in HA0, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
What the law says in Brent
In Brent, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.
What do double fire doors cost in Brent?
Our guide for double fire doors is £1,600–£3,400 per pair fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for Brent are fixed once we've measured, and include removing and disposing of old doors where they're being replaced.
Central and inner London work can cost a little more where parking, loading restrictions or out-of-hours access apply; we show any access costs as a separate line.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.
Buildings that need double fire doors
Wherever they are in Brent, double fire doors are most often specified for wide risers and care and hospital routes.
London has the UK's largest concentration of purpose-built flats and high-rise residential blocks, so flat entrance doors, communal corridor doors and regulation 10 checks drive much of the demand.
- Wide risers
- Care and hospital routes
- Cross-corridor openings
- Plant room access

Your questions answered
How quickly can you survey in Brent?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Brent visits with other work in Greater London. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
What does a Brent quote include?
Survey, certified doorset, ironmongery, installation, removal of old doors and a handover pack. VAT is added at the standard rate.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Brent?
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.
