School & Healthcare Fire Doors for Carlisle buildings
We fit fire doors for schools, surgeries and care homes in Carlisle and the rest of Cumbria. 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.
We cover Carlisle and the rest of Cumbria, with surveys arranged around your building's access and occupancy.
Which rules apply in Carlisle?
Because Carlisle is in England, the starting point is Approved Document B for the specification and the Fire Safety Order 2005 for ongoing duties. Blocks with a storey above 11 metres also fall under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: communal fire doors checked at least every three months, flat front doors at least every year.
