FD60 fire doors in Harwich: how we work
We fit FD60 doorsets for compartment walls, cores and plant rooms in Harwich and the rest of Essex. 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 Harwich surveys with other visits in Essex, such as Felixstowe and Ipswich, which helps keep survey dates flexible.

In Harwich, 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.
