Regulations for FD60 fire doors in Suffolk
Fire doors in Suffolk 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.

FD60 fire doors in Suffolk: questions
Can you fit just one door?
Yes — from a single door to a full building.
Which rules apply in Suffolk?
Doors are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Can you work around tenants or staff?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
How thick is an FD60 door?
Typically 54mm for timber doorsets. Steel FD60 doors vary by manufacturer.
