Questions about FD30 fire doors in Carlisle

Can you work around tenants or staff in Carlisle?

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 remove the old doors?

Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Carlisle.

Can you fit just one door in Carlisle?

Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Cumbria.

Can I fit an FD30 door into my existing frame?

Only if the manufacturer's evidence allows that frame, which is rare. We normally supply the complete doorset with a new frame so the certification carries through to the finished job.
