Regulations for riser cupboard fire doors in Dorset
In Bournemouth, 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.
Guide prices in Bournemouth
Expect roughly £550–£950 per single doorset for riser cupboard fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Bournemouth quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.

Your questions answered
How quickly can you survey in Bournemouth?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Bournemouth visits with other work in Dorset. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Bournemouth?
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.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Bournemouth.
What rating does a riser door need?
In England, Approved Document B generally asks for at least half the fire resistance of the shaft wall, with a 30-minute minimum — so FD30 is typical, rising to FD60 for 120-minute shafts. Your fire strategy confirms it.
