HMO fire doors in Gravesend: how we work
Looking for HMO fire doors in Gravesend? Our supply and fit service covers DA11 and the surrounding area, including Grays and Strood. We quote complete doorsets — leaf, frame, seals, hinges and closer — because that is what the fire certification actually covers.
Where possible we combine Gravesend surveys with other visits in Kent, such as Grays and Strood, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Fire door rules in Gravesend
New and replacement fire doors in Gravesend 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.
Cost of HMO fire doors in Kent
Budget around £750 to £1,100 per door for HMO fire doors supplied and fitted in Gravesend, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
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.
