Fire door closers and ironmongery in Leicester: how we work
We fit fire door closers, hinges and hold-open devices in Leicester and the rest of Leicestershire. 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.
Surveys in Leicester are booked around your access needs, and we cover the wider Leicestershire area too.
Fire door rules in Leicester
Because Leicester 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.
