Fire Door Replacement for Durham buildings
For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in Durham, we provide fire door replacement with certified doorsets with one fixed quote. A free survey comes first, then a door-by-door schedule, then installation to the manufacturer's instructions and a handover pack for your records.
Whether your building is in central Durham or on its edges towards Chester-le-Street, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
Which rules apply in Durham?
In Durham, 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.
