Double fire doors in Solihull: how we work
We cover Solihull and nearby Shirley for double fire doors, with surveys booked around your building's access and occupancy. Each door is quoted individually, so you can see what every opening costs and why.
Whether your building is in central Solihull or on its edges towards Shirley, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
What the law says in Solihull
In Solihull, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.
Cost of double fire doors in West Midlands
Our guide price for double fire doors in Solihull is £1,600 to £3,400 per pair including fitting, ex VAT. Non-standard sizes, veneers, vision panels and access control push towards the top of the range.
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.
