FD60 fire doors in Richmond: how we work
We fit FD60 doorsets for compartment walls, cores and plant rooms in Richmond and the rest of Greater London. 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.
Richmond is about 9 miles from London. Wherever your building is in TW9, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
Regulations for FD60 fire doors in Greater London
Because Richmond is in England, the starting point is Approved Document B for the specification and the Fire Safety Order 2005 for ongoing duties. Blocks with a storey above 11 metres also fall under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: communal fire doors checked at least every three months, flat front doors at least every year.
FD60 fire doors prices in Richmond
Expect roughly £1,050–£1,650 per single doorset for FD60 fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Richmond 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.
If your fire risk assessment lists specific doors, send it with your enquiry and we'll price exactly those openings.
Buildings that need FD60 fire doors
Compartment walls and higher-risk stores are among the most common settings for FD60 fire doors, in Richmond 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.
- Compartment walls
- Higher-risk stores
- Plant and boiler rooms
- Stair cores in taller blocks

Common questions in Greater London
Which rules do FD60 fire doors in Richmond need to meet?
They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Richmond?
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.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Richmond.
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.
