Getting double fire doors fitted in Welling
We fit double and leaf-and-a-half fire doorsets in Welling 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.
Where possible we combine Welling surveys with other visits in Greater London, such as Bexley and Eltham, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
What the law says in Welling
Because Welling is in England, the starting point is Approved Document B for the specification and the Fire Safety Order 2005 for ongoing duties. 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.
Cost of double fire doors in Greater London
Expect roughly £1,600–£3,400 per pair for double fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Welling quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
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.
Made-to-measure sizes for older openings, vision panels and upgraded hardware are the usual reasons a door sits towards the top of the range.
Where double fire doors are used in Welling
In Welling, double fire doors are typically needed in plant room access and cross-corridor openings.
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.

Questions about double fire doors in Welling
Which rules do double fire doors in Welling need to meet?
They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Welling?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Do you remove the old doors?

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.
