Your questions answered

Which rules do FD60 fire doors in Cowes 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.

How quickly can you survey in Cowes?

We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Cowes visits with other work in Isle of Wight. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.

Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Cowes?

Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.

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.
