Regulations for HMO fire doors in Cumbria
In Kendal, 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.
What do HMO fire doors cost in Kendal?
Guide prices for HMO fire doors in Kendal run from about £750 to £1,100 per door, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.
Each quote covers the certified doorset, standard ironmongery, fitting, removal of the old door and a handover record; anything outside that scope is shown as a separate line before you accept.

Questions about HMO fire doors in Kendal
Is the survey in Kendal free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Kendal?
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.
Can you fit just one door in Kendal?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Cumbria.
Do HMO fire doors need intumescent strips and smoke seals?
Fire doors always have intumescent seals. Some councils also require smoke seals in HMOs; your licence conditions will say.
