Our County Durham supply and fit service
Our County Durham service covers flat entrance fire doors for flats, HMOs, workplaces, schools and homes, including Darlington, Hartlepool and Stockton-on-Tees.
Which rules apply in County Durham?
Because County Durham 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.

Questions about flat entrance fire doors in County Durham
How quickly can you survey in County Durham?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine visits with other work in County Durham. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset.
Can you work around tenants or staff?
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.
Does a flat entrance door need a letterbox?
No. Many blocks avoid letterplates altogether. Where one is wanted, it must be fire-rated and tested in that doorset.
