Questions about FD30 fire doors in Gravesend
Can you work around tenants or staff in Gravesend?
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 the survey in Gravesend free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Do you cover Gravesend?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit FD30 fire doors throughout Gravesend and the rest of Kent, including DA11 and nearby Grays.
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.
