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.

Expect roughly £1,600–£3,400 per pair for double fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Watford quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
