Getting FD60 fire doors fitted in Wigston
Getting FD60 fire doors right in Wigston means choosing a certified doorset for each opening and fitting it exactly as tested. That's the whole service: survey, schedule, certified doorset, careful installation and the paperwork to prove it.
Where possible we combine Wigston surveys with other visits in Leicestershire, such as Oadby and Leicester, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
What the law says in Wigston
Because Wigston 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.
Cost of FD60 fire doors in Leicestershire
Budget around £1,050 to £1,650 per single doorset for FD60 fire doors supplied and fitted in Wigston, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
Made-to-measure sizes for older openings, vision panels and upgraded hardware are the usual reasons a door sits towards the top of the range.
