FD30S fire doors in London: how we work
For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in London, we provide FD30S smoke control doorsets for flats, stairs and corridors with one fixed quote. A free survey comes first, then a door-by-door schedule, then installation to the manufacturer's instructions and a handover pack for your records.
London is one of the main towns we cover in Greater London; tell us your dates and we'll arrange a survey.
What the law says in London
In London, 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.
Guide prices in London
Our guide for FD30S fire doors is £800–£1,250 per single doorset fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for London 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 London
Typical uses for FD30S fire doors in London include protected stairways and integral garage doors.
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.
- Protected stairways
- Integral garage doors
- Lobby doors in blocks of flats
- Cross-corridor doors

FD30S fire doors in London: questions
How quickly can you survey in London?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine London visits with other work in Greater London. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Do you work for landlords and managing agents in London?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in London?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Do smoke seals stop the door closing?
They shouldn't. A properly hung FD30S door closes and latches under its closer. If seals are crushed or the door binds, it needs adjusting — a door that fails to latch is a failed fire door.
