Double fire doors in Bootle: how we work
If your fire risk assessment in Bootle 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 L21 are free and quotes are fixed and itemised.
Whether your building is in central Bootle or on its edges towards Litherland, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.

Common questions in Merseyside
What does a Bootle quote include?
Survey, certified doorset, ironmongery, installation, removal of old doors and a handover pack. VAT is added at the standard rate.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Bootle?
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.
Do you cover Bootle?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit double fire doors throughout Bootle and the rest of Merseyside, including L21 and nearby Litherland.
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.
