Fire exit doors in Ripley

Our Ripley supply and fit service

We fit fire exit doors with panic hardware in Ripley and the rest of Derbyshire. The process is simple: we survey and measure each opening, propose a certified doorset for it, and give you a fixed price. Fitting is booked once the doorsets are made, usually with no door left out of action overnight.

Ripley is about 8 miles from Derby; we cover both, along with Heanor, Belper and Alfreton.

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 work for landlords and managing agents in Ripley?

Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.

Do fire exit doors need to be fire doors?

Not always. It depends on the wall they sit in and nearby escape routes.
