Certified FD60 fire doors for Bishop Auckland
For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in Bishop Auckland, we provide FD60 doorsets for compartment walls, cores and plant rooms 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.
Where possible we combine Bishop Auckland surveys with other visits in County Durham, such as Newton Aycliffe and Durham, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
