FD30 fire doors in Great Sankey: questions

Is the survey in Great Sankey free?

Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.

Can you work around tenants or staff in Great Sankey?

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.

Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Great Sankey?

Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.

Is FD30 the same as E30?

Broadly, yes. FD30 comes from the British test (BS 476-22); E30 is the European classification from BS EN 1634-1. Both mean 30 minutes of integrity. EI30 adds insulation, which some locations and glazed doors need.
