FD30S fire doors in Witham: how we work
Looking for FD30S fire doors in Witham? Our supply and fit service covers CM8 and the surrounding area, including Maldon and Braintree. We quote complete doorsets — leaf, frame, seals, hinges and closer — because that is what the fire certification actually covers.
Where possible we combine Witham surveys with other visits in Essex, such as Maldon and Braintree, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Which rules apply in Witham?
Fire doors in Witham sit under English rules: Approved Document B sets what goes in, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 covers keeping doors effective in non-domestic premises and shared parts of residential buildings, and the 2022 regulations require regular door checks in residential buildings taller than 11 metres. Higher-risk buildings — 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes — also come under the Building Safety Act 2022.

Your questions answered
How quickly can you survey in Witham?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Witham visits with other work in Essex. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Witham?
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 Witham?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
What is the difference between FD30 and FD30S?
Both resist fire for 30 minutes. FD30S also has tested smoke seals that limit cold smoke passing around the leaf before the intumescent strip activates.
