FD30S Smoke Control Doorsets for Blackheath buildings
We fit FD30S smoke control doorsets for flats, stairs and corridors in Blackheath and the rest of Greater London. The process is simple: we survey and measure each opening, propose a certified doorset for it, and give you a fixed price. Fitting is booked once the doorsets are made, usually with no door left out of action overnight.
Where possible we combine Blackheath surveys with other visits in Greater London, such as Greenwich and Catford, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
What the law says in Blackheath
In Blackheath, 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.
Cost of FD30S fire doors in Greater London
Our guide for FD30S fire doors is £800–£1,250 per single doorset fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for Blackheath are fixed once we've measured, and include removing and disposing of old doors where they're being replaced.
Central and inner London work can cost a little more where parking, loading restrictions or out-of-hours access apply; we show any access costs as a separate line.
Each quote covers the certified doorset, standard ironmongery, fitting, removal of the old door and a handover record; anything outside that scope is shown as a separate line before you accept.
Typical uses in Blackheath
Protected stairways and lobby doors in blocks of flats are among the most common settings for FD30S fire doors, in Blackheath as elsewhere.
London has the UK's largest concentration of purpose-built flats and high-rise residential blocks, so flat entrance doors, communal corridor doors and regulation 10 checks drive much of the demand.

Your questions answered
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Blackheath?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Blackheath.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Blackheath?
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.
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.
