Double fire doors in Kent: how we work
Throughout Kent, including Maidstone, Gillingham and Chatham, we survey, quote and fit double and leaf-and-a-half fire doorsets as complete certified doorsets, with the manufacturer's certificate reference on every quote.
Regulations for double fire doors in Kent
New and replacement fire doors in Kent 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.
Guide prices in Kent
Guide prices for double fire doors in Kent run from about £1,600 to £3,400 per pair, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.
We show each door's price separately, so if budget is tight you can phase the work and start with the doors your fire risk assessment prioritises.
