Our St Helens supply and fit service
We fit FD30S smoke control doorsets for flats, stairs and corridors in St Helens 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.
Our Merseyside coverage includes St Helens and its neighbours Prescot, Ashton-in-Makerfield and Huyton; tell us your postcode and preferred dates and we'll confirm a survey slot.

Your questions answered
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in St Helens?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Can you fit just one door in St Helens?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Merseyside.
Do you work for landlords and managing agents in St Helens?
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.
