Getting school fire doors fitted in Hawarden
We fit fire doors for schools, surgeries and care homes in Hawarden and the rest of Clwyd. 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.
Hawarden is about 10 miles from Wrexham. Wherever your building is in CH5, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
Fire door rules in Hawarden
In Hawarden the specification follows Approved Document B as published for Wales, while day-to-day duties to keep fire doors working come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. 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.
What do school fire doors cost in Hawarden?
Our guide price for school fire doors in Hawarden is £1,100 to £2,400 per doorset including fitting, ex VAT. Non-standard sizes, veneers, vision panels and access control push towards the top of the range.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.

School fire doors in Hawarden: questions
Can you fit just one door in Hawarden?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Clwyd.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Hawarden.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Hawarden?
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.
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.
