Common questions in Greater Manchester

Can you work around tenants or staff in Saddleworth?

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 Saddleworth?

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

What does a Saddleworth quote include?

Survey, certified doorset, ironmongery, installation, removal of old doors and a handover pack. VAT is added at the standard rate.

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.
