FD60 fire doors in Deal: how we work
We fit FD60 doorsets for compartment walls, cores and plant rooms in Deal and the rest of Kent. 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.
Whether your building is in central Deal or on its edges towards Dover, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.

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.
