FD30S Smoke Control Doorsets for Southport buildings
We fit FD30S smoke control doorsets for flats, stairs and corridors in Southport and the rest of Merseyside. 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 Southport surveys with other visits in Merseyside, such as Formby and Lytham St Annes, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Fire door rules in Southport
Fire doors in Southport 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.

Common questions in Merseyside
Can you fit just one door in Southport?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Merseyside.
How quickly can you survey in Southport?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Southport visits with other work in Merseyside. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Southport.
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.
