Getting fire door closers and ironmongery fitted in Dorset
Our Dorset service covers fire door closers and ironmongery for flats, HMOs, workplaces, schools and homes, including Bournemouth, Poole and Weymouth.
Regulations for fire door closers and ironmongery in Dorset
In Dorset, 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 closers and ironmongery in Dorset
Our guide price for fire door closers and ironmongery in Dorset is £120 to £500 per item including fitting, ex VAT. Non-standard sizes, veneers, vision panels and access control push towards the top of the range.
If your fire risk assessment lists specific doors, send it with your enquiry and we'll price exactly those openings.

Common questions in Dorset
Which rules apply in Dorset?
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.
How quickly can you survey in Dorset?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine visits with other work in Dorset. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
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.
Do you install hold-open devices?
We fit the devices; connection to the fire alarm panel is done by your alarm engineer, whom we coordinate with.
