Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Which rules do FD30 fire doors in Ampthill need to meet?
They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Can you fit just one door in Ampthill?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Bedfordshire.
Does an FD30 door need a self-closer?
Almost always. Fire doors only work closed, so they need a self-closing device unless they are cupboard or riser doors kept locked shut.
