FD60 Fire Doorsets for Dover buildings
Need FD60 fire doors in Dover? We supply and fit complete certified doorsets across Kent, starting with a free measure survey in and around CT17. Every quote lists each door, its rating and the manufacturer's certificate reference, so you know exactly what is going in before anything is ordered.
Where possible we combine Dover surveys with other visits in Kent, such as Folkestone and Deal, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Fire door rules in Dover
Fire doors in Dover 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.
Guide prices in Dover
Expect roughly £1,050–£1,650 per single doorset for FD60 fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Dover quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
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.

Your questions answered
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Dover.
Is the survey in Dover free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Can you fit just one door in Dover?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Kent.
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.
