Our Southampton supply and fit service
We fit FD30S smoke control doorsets for flats, stairs and corridors in Southampton and the rest of Hampshire. 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.
We cover Southampton and the rest of Hampshire, with surveys arranged around your building's access and occupancy.
What the law says in Southampton
Fire doors in Southampton 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.
FD30S fire doors prices in Southampton
Budget around £800 to £1,250 per single doorset for FD30S fire doors supplied and fitted in Southampton, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.

FD30S fire doors in Southampton: questions
Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Southampton?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Which rules do FD30S fire doors in Southampton 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.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Southampton?
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.
Is a threshold seal needed?
It depends on the doorset's test evidence. Some FD30S doorsets need a drop-down or threshold seal; others control smoke with a set threshold gap.
