Our Preston supply and fit service
We cover Preston and nearby Leyland for FD30 fire doors, with surveys booked around your building's access and occupancy. Each door is quoted individually, so you can see what every opening costs and why.
Preston is one of the main towns we cover in Lancashire; tell us your dates and we'll arrange a survey.
Which rules apply in Preston?
In Preston, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.
What do FD30 fire doors cost in Preston?
Our guide price for FD30 fire doors in Preston is £750 to £1,150 per single doorset including fitting, ex VAT. Non-standard sizes, veneers, vision panels and access control push towards the top of the range.
Guide prices assume straightforward access; out-of-hours working or difficult access is priced as a separate, visible line.

Questions about FD30 fire doors in Preston
Which rules do FD30 fire doors in Preston 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 the survey in Preston 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 Preston?
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.
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.
