Our Shirley supply and fit service
We cover Shirley and nearby Solihull for flat entrance fire 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 Shirley surveys with other visits in West Midlands, such as Solihull and Acocks Green, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Fire door rules in Shirley
New and replacement fire doors in Shirley are specified under the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep fire doors in working order, and in residential buildings with a storey above 11 metres regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds quarterly checks of communal doors and annual checks of flat entrance doors.
Flat entrance fire doors prices in Shirley

Common questions in West Midlands
Can you fit just one door in Shirley?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in West Midlands.
What does a Shirley quote include?
Survey, certified doorset, ironmongery, installation, removal of old doors and a handover pack. VAT is added at the standard rate.
Which rules do flat entrance fire doors in Shirley 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.
How long does fitting take?
A single flat entrance doorset usually takes a few hours to fit, including the new frame. 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.
