Your questions answered
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Garston?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Which rules do FD30S fire doors in Garston 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.
Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Garston?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
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.
