Getting fire exit doors fitted in Maldon

Getting fire exit doors right in Maldon means choosing a certified doorset for each opening and fitting it exactly as tested. That's the whole service: survey, schedule, certified doorset, careful installation and the paperwork to prove it.

What the law says in Maldon

In Maldon, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.

Your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Maldon?

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

Which rules do fire exit doors in Maldon 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.

Can you work around tenants or staff in Maldon?

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.

Which way does a fire exit door open?

Outward, in the direction of escape, where occupancy requires it — most commercial exit doors open outward.
