Regulations for fire door replacement in Greater London

Fire door replacement prices in Islington
Our guide for fire door replacement is £750–£1,150 per doorset fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for Islington are fixed once we've measured, and include removing and disposing of old doors where they're being replaced.
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.
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.

Your questions answered
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Islington?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Islington?
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.
Can you fit just one door in Islington?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Greater London.
Can you replace just the door leaf?
Only if the existing frame is covered by the new leaf's evidence, which is uncommon. A complete doorset is usually needed.
