Common questions in East Sussex

Can you fit just one door in Rottingdean?

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

Is the survey in Rottingdean 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 Rottingdean?

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.

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.
