Riser cupboard fire doors in Southampton: how we work
For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in Southampton, we provide fire-rated riser and service cupboard doors with one fixed quote. A free survey comes first, then a door-by-door schedule, then installation to the manufacturer's instructions and a handover pack for your records.
We cover Southampton and the rest of Hampshire, with surveys arranged around your building's access and occupancy.
Regulations for riser cupboard fire doors in Hampshire
Because Southampton 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.
Guide prices in Southampton
Budget around £550 to £950 per single doorset for riser cupboard fire doors supplied and fitted in Southampton, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.

Common questions in Hampshire
Is the survey in Southampton free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Southampton?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Can you fit just one door in Southampton?
