FD60 fire doors in Oxford: how we work
We fit FD60 doorsets for compartment walls, cores and plant rooms in Oxford and the rest of Oxfordshire. 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.
Oxford is one of the main towns we cover in Oxfordshire; tell us your dates and we'll arrange a survey.
What the law says in Oxford
Because Oxford 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.
Guide prices in Oxford
Our guide price for FD60 fire doors in Oxford is £1,050 to £1,650 per single doorset including fitting, ex VAT. Non-standard sizes, veneers, vision panels and access control push towards the top of the range.
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.
