Fire door rules in Bournemouth

In Bournemouth, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.

Guide prices in Bournemouth

Guide prices for glazed fire doors in Bournemouth run from about £950 to £1,700 per single doorset, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.

Made-to-measure sizes for older openings, vision panels and upgraded hardware are the usual reasons a door sits towards the top of the range.

Common questions in Dorset

Can you work around tenants or staff in Bournemouth?

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.

Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Bournemouth?

Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.

Which rules do glazed fire doors in Bournemouth 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.

Can I replace broken fire glass myself?

It must be replaced with the same glass type and glazing system. We can supply and fit replacement glazing for doorsets we install.
