HMO fire doors in Kent: how we work
Our Kent service covers HMO fire doors for flats, HMOs, workplaces, schools and homes, including Maidstone, Gillingham and Chatham.
Fire door rules in Kent
In Kent, 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.
HMO fire doors prices in Kent
Guide prices for HMO fire doors in Kent 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.
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.

Questions about HMO fire doors in Kent
Can you fit just one door?
Yes — from a single door to a full building.
Which rules apply in Kent?
Doors are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Can I upgrade my existing HMO doors?
Sometimes, if the doors are solid and suitable and a tested upgrade method is used. Often a new doorset is cheaper overall and easier to evidence.
