Fire exit doors in Felixstowe: how we work

Getting fire exit doors right in Felixstowe 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.

Felixstowe is about 11 miles from Ipswich; we cover both, along with Harwich, Ipswich and Clacton-on-Sea.

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.

Can you work around tenants or staff in Felixstowe?

Do you remove the old doors?

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

Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Felixstowe?

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.
