Fire door rules in Tynemouth
Because Tynemouth 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.
Cost of double fire doors in Tyne and Wear
Guide prices for double fire doors in Tynemouth 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.
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.
Where double fire doors are needed
Care and hospital routes and wide risers are among the most common settings for double fire doors, in Tynemouth as elsewhere.
Newcastle and Sunderland combine city-centre apartments and student housing with a large stock of post-war council blocks and terraces.

Your questions answered
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Tynemouth?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Can you fit just one door in Tynemouth?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Tyne and Wear.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Tynemouth?
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.
What is a leaf-and-a-half door?
A pair with one wide and one narrow leaf, giving normal access through the wide leaf and full width when both open.
