Our Whitstable supply and fit service
We fit glazed fire doors with tested fire glass in Whitstable and the rest of Kent. 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 Whitstable or on its edges towards Herne Bay, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.

Budget around £950 to £1,700 per single doorset for glazed fire doors supplied and fitted in Whitstable, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.

Your questions answered
Can you work around tenants or staff in Whitstable?

Is the survey in Whitstable free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Which rules do glazed fire doors in Whitstable 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.
Is wired glass still used?
Rarely now. Modern clear fire-resistant glass gives much better visibility.
