Our Islington supply and fit service
For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in Islington, 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.
We cover N1 and the surrounding area, including Highbury. Tell us your postcode and preferred dates and we'll confirm a survey slot.
Fire door rules in Islington
Fire doors in Islington sit under English rules: Approved Document B sets what goes in, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 covers keeping doors effective in non-domestic premises and shared parts of residential buildings, and the 2022 regulations require regular door checks in residential buildings taller than 11 metres. Higher-risk buildings — 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes — also come under the Building Safety Act 2022.
Cost of FD60 fire doors in Greater London
Expect roughly £1,050–£1,650 per single doorset for FD60 fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Islington quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
Central and inner London work can cost a little more where parking, loading restrictions or out-of-hours access apply; we show any access costs as a separate line.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.
Typical uses in Islington
Compartment walls and plant and boiler rooms are among the most common settings for FD60 fire doors, in Islington as elsewhere.
London has the UK's largest concentration of purpose-built flats and high-rise residential blocks, so flat entrance doors, communal corridor doors and regulation 10 checks drive much of the demand.

Questions about FD60 fire doors in Islington
Can you work around tenants or staff in Islington?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Islington?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Do you cover Islington?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit FD60 fire doors throughout Islington and the rest of Greater London, including N1 and nearby Highbury.
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.
