Double & Leaf-and-a-Half Fire Doors for Dover buildings
If your fire risk assessment in Dover 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 CT17 are free and quotes are fixed and itemised.
Where possible we combine Dover surveys with other visits in Kent, such as Folkestone and Deal, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Regulations for double fire doors in Kent
Because Dover 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.
What do double fire doors cost in Dover?
Budget around £1,600 to £3,400 per pair for double fire doors supplied and fitted in Dover, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
Each quote covers the certified doorset, standard ironmongery, fitting, removal of the old door and a handover record; anything outside that scope is shown as a separate line before you accept.
