Fire Door Ironmongery & Closers for Kent buildings
We supply and fit fire door closers and ironmongery across Kent, including Maidstone, Gillingham and Chatham. Every job starts with a free measure survey and ends with a handover pack listing each certified doorset fitted.
Which rules apply in Kent?
Because Kent 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.
Guide prices in Kent
Expect roughly £120–£500 per item for fire door closers and ironmongery, fitted, ex VAT. Your Kent quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
Made-to-measure sizes for older openings, vision panels and upgraded hardware are the usual reasons a door sits towards the top of the range.

Questions about fire door closers and ironmongery in Kent
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Can you fit just one door?
Yes — from a single door to a full building.
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.
What closer strength does a fire door need?
Enough to close and latch the door reliably — often EN3 or EN4 for standard leaves — while keeping opening force within accessibility limits.
