Getting FD30 fire doors fitted in Kendal
We fit FD30 doorsets for flats, offices, HMOs and corridors in Kendal and the rest of Cumbria. The process is simple: we survey and measure each opening, propose a certified doorset for it, and give you a fixed price. Fitting is booked once the doorsets are made, usually with no door left out of action overnight.
Whether your building is in central Kendal or on its edges towards Morecambe, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.

FD30 fire doors in Kendal: questions
How quickly can you survey in Kendal?

Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Kendal?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Which rules do FD30 fire doors in Kendal 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.
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.
