Our Oldham supply and fit service
Getting double fire doors right in Oldham means choosing a certified doorset for each opening and fitting it exactly as tested. That's the whole service: survey, schedule, certified doorset, careful installation and the paperwork to prove it.
Whether your building is in central Oldham or on its edges towards Chadderton, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
Which rules apply in Oldham?
