Fire exit doors in Thetford

Fire exit doors in Thetford: how we work

We fit fire exit doors with panic hardware in Thetford and the rest of Norfolk. 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.

Whether your building is in central Thetford or on its edges towards Bury St Edmunds, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.

Which rules apply in Thetford?

Because Thetford 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.
