Getting school fire doors fitted in Peterhead
We fit fire doors for schools, surgeries and care homes in Peterhead and the rest of Aberdeen & Aberdeenshire. The process is simple: we survey and measure each opening, propose a certified doorset for it, and give you a fixed price. Fitting is booked once the doorsets are made, usually with no door left out of action overnight.
Where possible we combine Peterhead surveys with other visits in Aberdeen & Aberdeenshire, such as Inverurie and Aberdeen, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
