Our Atherton supply and fit service
We fit FD30 doorsets for flats, offices, HMOs and corridors in Atherton and the rest of Greater Manchester. 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.
We cover M46 and the surrounding area, including Tyldesley. Tell us your postcode and preferred dates and we'll confirm a survey slot.
Fire door rules in Atherton
Because Atherton is in England, the starting point is Approved Document B for the specification and the Fire Safety Order 2005 for ongoing duties. Blocks with a storey above 11 metres also fall under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: communal fire doors checked at least every three months, flat front doors at least every year.

Common questions in Greater Manchester
Which rules do FD30 fire doors in Atherton 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 Atherton?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Greater Manchester.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Atherton?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
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.
