School fire doors in Peterborough: how we work
Looking for school fire doors in Peterborough? Our supply and fit service covers PE1 and the surrounding area, including Stamford and March. We quote complete doorsets — leaf, frame, seals, hinges and closer — because that is what the fire certification actually covers.
Surveys in Peterborough are booked around your access needs, and we cover the wider Cambridgeshire area too.
Fire door rules in Peterborough
In Peterborough, 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 Peterborough
Budget around £1,100 to £2,400 per doorset for school fire doors supplied and fitted in Peterborough, 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.

Questions about school fire doors in Peterborough
Can you work around tenants or staff in Peterborough?
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.
Which rules do school fire doors in Peterborough need to meet?
They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Is the survey in Peterborough free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Can we stop staff wedging fire doors open?
Alarm-linked hold-open devices or free-swing closers remove the need to wedge doors and close them automatically in a fire.
