Our Aberdare supply and fit service
Getting riser cupboard fire doors right in Aberdare means choosing a certified doorset for each opening and fitting it exactly as tested. That's the whole service: survey, schedule, certified doorset, careful installation and the paperwork to prove it.
Where possible we combine Aberdare surveys with other visits in Mid Glamorgan, such as Rhondda and Merthyr Tydfil, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Which rules apply in Aberdare?

The England-only door-check regulations of 2022 don't apply in Wales, but regular checks remain good practice and are expected by fire risk assessors.
