Double fire doors in Motherwell: how we work
Need double fire doors in Motherwell? We supply and fit complete certified doorsets across Lanarkshire, starting with a free measure survey in and around ML1. Every quote lists each door, its rating and the manufacturer's certificate reference, so you know exactly what is going in before anything is ordered.
Whether your building is in central Motherwell or on its edges towards Hamilton, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
Fire door rules in Motherwell
In Motherwell the building standards come from the Scottish Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Document B, and existing non-domestic premises fall under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005. We specify doorsets against the Scottish requirements and your fire risk assessment.
What do double fire doors cost in Motherwell?
Expect roughly £1,600–£3,400 per pair for double fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Motherwell quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.

Your questions answered
Can you work around tenants or staff in Motherwell?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
Is the survey in Motherwell free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Can you fit just one door in Motherwell?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Lanarkshire.
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.
