Questions about fire door replacement in Portishead
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Portishead.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Portishead?
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 Portishead?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Somerset.
How do I know if my fire door needs replacing?
Large or uneven gaps, missing or painted-over seals, a closer that doesn't latch the door, damage to the leaf or frame, ordinary glass, or no label or plug showing certification are all warning signs.
