Getting fire door replacement fitted in South Shields
For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in South Shields, 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.
South Shields is about 7 miles from Newcastle upon Tyne. Wherever your building is in NE33, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
Fire door rules in South Shields
Because South Shields 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.
