Certified FD60 fire doors for Colchester
Looking for FD60 fire doors in Colchester? Our supply and fit service covers CO1 and the surrounding area, including Sudbury and Clacton-on-Sea. We quote complete doorsets — leaf, frame, seals, hinges and closer — because that is what the fire certification actually covers.
Whether your building is in central Colchester or on its edges towards Sudbury, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
Which rules apply in Colchester?
In Colchester, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. 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 prices in Colchester
Budget around £1,050 to £1,650 per single doorset for FD60 fire doors supplied and fitted in Colchester, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.
