Fire door installation in County Durham: how we work
Our County Durham service covers fire door installation for flats, HMOs, workplaces, schools and homes, including Darlington, Hartlepool and Stockton-on-Tees.
Regulations for fire door installation in County Durham
Because County Durham 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 fire door installation in County Durham
Our guide for fire door installation is £750–£1,150 per FD30 doorset fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for County Durham are fixed once we've measured, and include removing and disposing of old doors where they're being replaced.
