Our Suffolk supply and fit service
We supply and fit HMO fire doors across Suffolk, including Ipswich, Lowestoft and Bury St Edmunds. Every job starts with a free measure survey and ends with a handover pack listing each certified doorset fitted.
Which rules apply in Suffolk?
Because Suffolk is in England, the starting point is Approved Document B for the specification and the Fire Safety Order 2005 for ongoing duties. Blocks with a storey above 11 metres also fall under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: communal fire doors checked at least every three months, flat front doors at least every year.
Cost of HMO fire doors in Suffolk
Expect roughly £750–£1,100 per door for HMO fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Suffolk quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
If your fire risk assessment lists specific doors, send it with your enquiry and we'll price exactly those openings.
Where HMO fire doors are needed
Suffolk's demand comes from Ipswich's waterfront flats and offices, Felixstowe's port logistics and market towns across the county.

Your questions answered
Can you work around tenants or staff?
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset.
Can HMO bedroom doors have locks?
Yes, but they must open from inside without a key, typically with a thumb-turn, and be tested with the door.
