FD30S fire doors in Rottingdean: how we work
We cover Rottingdean and nearby Brighton for FD30S 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.
Where possible we combine Rottingdean surveys with other visits in East Sussex, such as Brighton and Hove, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Which rules apply in Rottingdean?
Because Rottingdean 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.
Cost of FD30S fire doors in East Sussex
Guide prices for FD30S fire doors in Rottingdean run from about £800 to £1,250 per single doorset, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.

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.
