Our Cambridge supply and fit service
We fit fire doors for schools, surgeries and care homes in Cambridge and the rest of Cambridgeshire. 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.
Cambridge is about 30 miles from Peterborough; we cover both, along with Newmarket, Ely and Huntingdon.

Guide prices in Cambridge
Budget around £1,100 to £2,400 per doorset for school fire doors supplied and fitted in Cambridge, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
Each quote covers the certified doorset, standard ironmongery, fitting, removal of the old door and a handover record; anything outside that scope is shown as a separate line before you accept.
