FD60 fire doors in Hartlepool: how we work
We fit FD60 doorsets for compartment walls, cores and plant rooms in Hartlepool and the rest of County Durham. 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.

Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.

FD60 fire doors in Hartlepool: questions
Do you cover Hartlepool?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit FD60 fire doors throughout Hartlepool and the rest of County Durham, including TS26 and nearby Peterlee.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Hartlepool?
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 Hartlepool?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in County Durham.
Can I use an FD60 door where FD30 is required?
Yes — a higher rating meets a lower requirement — but it is heavier and dearer, so we only recommend it where the location calls for it or you want a margin.
