Fire exit doors in Glenrothes: how we work

We cover Glenrothes and nearby Kirkcaldy for fire exit doors, with surveys booked around your building's access and occupancy. Each door is quoted individually, so you can see what every opening costs and why.

Where possible we combine Glenrothes surveys with other visits in Fife, such as Kirkcaldy and Dunfermline, which helps keep survey dates flexible.

For non-domestic premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on whoever controls the building.
