FD60 fire doors in Southampton: how we work
If your fire risk assessment in Southampton has flagged doors to replace, we can schedule, quote and fit FD60 doorsets for compartment walls, cores and plant rooms to match its recommendations. Surveys in SO14 are free and quotes are fixed and itemised.
We cover Southampton and the rest of Hampshire, with surveys arranged around your building's access and occupancy.
Which rules apply in Southampton?
In Southampton, 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.
What do FD60 fire doors cost in Southampton?
Guide prices for FD60 fire doors in Southampton run from about £1,050 to £1,650 per single doorset, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.
Each quote covers the certified doorset, standard ironmongery, fitting, removal of the old door and a handover record; anything outside that scope is shown as a separate line before you accept.

Questions about FD60 fire doors in Southampton
Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Southampton?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Southampton?
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 cover Southampton?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit FD60 fire doors throughout Southampton and the rest of Hampshire, including SO14 and nearby Hythe.
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.
