Fire exit doors in Crewe

Fire exit doors in Crewe: how we work

Fire Rated Doors supplies and fits fire exit doors in Crewe, Cheshire. Whether it's a single replacement or every door in a block, we start by surveying the openings and end with a handover pack listing each doorset and its certificate reference.

Where possible we combine Crewe surveys with other visits in Cheshire, such as Winsford and Kidsgrove, which helps keep survey dates flexible.

What the law says in Crewe

Because Crewe 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.

What do fire exit doors cost in Crewe?

Guide prices for fire exit doors in Crewe run from about £1,200 to £2,200 per single doorset, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.

Each quote covers the certified doorset, standard ironmongery, fitting, removal of the old door and a handover record; anything outside that scope is shown as a separate line before you accept.

Common questions in Cheshire

Which rules do fire exit doors in Crewe need to meet?

They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.

Do you remove the old doors?

Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Crewe.

Can you work around tenants or staff in Crewe?

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 a fire exit door be locked?

Not in a way that prevents instant exit without a key while the building is occupied. Panic and emergency exit hardware achieves security and escape together.
