Our Islington supply and fit service
If your fire risk assessment in Islington has flagged doors to replace, we can schedule, quote and fit double and leaf-and-a-half fire doorsets to match its recommendations. Surveys in N1 are free and quotes are fixed and itemised.
Where possible we combine Islington surveys with other visits in Greater London, such as Highbury and Holloway, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Which rules apply in Islington?
New and replacement fire doors in Islington are specified under the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep fire doors in working order, and in residential buildings with a storey above 11 metres regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds quarterly checks of communal doors and annual checks of flat entrance doors.
Cost of double fire doors in Greater London
Budget around £1,600 to £3,400 per pair for double fire doors supplied and fitted in Islington, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
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.
Typical uses in Islington
Care and hospital routes and plant room access are among the most common settings for double fire doors, in Islington as elsewhere.
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.
