Fire door closers and ironmongery in Richmond: how we work
We fit fire door closers, hinges and hold-open devices in Richmond and the rest of Greater London. 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.
Whether your building is in central Richmond or on its edges towards Isleworth, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
Regulations for fire door closers and ironmongery in Greater London
Because Richmond 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.
Fire door closers and ironmongery prices in Richmond
Guide prices for fire door closers and ironmongery in Richmond run from about £120 to £500 per item, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.
Central and inner London work can cost a little more where parking, loading restrictions or out-of-hours access apply; we show any access costs as a separate line.
If your fire risk assessment lists specific doors, send it with your enquiry and we'll price exactly those openings.
Typical uses in Richmond
In Richmond, fire door closers and ironmongery are typically needed in busy corridors needing hold-open and failed closers and hinges.
London has the UK's largest concentration of purpose-built flats and high-rise residential blocks, so flat entrance doors, communal corridor doors and regulation 10 checks drive much of the demand.

Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Richmond.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Richmond?

How many hinges does a fire door need?
Most timber fire doors need three hinges; heavier FD60 leaves often need four. The evidence decides.
