Regulations for fire door installation in Kent
In Gillingham, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.
Cost of fire door installation in Kent
Budget around £750 to £1,150 per FD30 doorset for fire door installation supplied and fitted in Gillingham, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
