Our Rayleigh supply and fit service
We fit fire doors for schools, surgeries and care homes in Rayleigh and the rest of Essex. 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.
Rayleigh is about 6 miles from Southend-on-Sea; we cover both, along with South Benfleet, Wickford and Pitsea.
Fire door rules in Rayleigh
In Rayleigh, 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.
School fire doors prices in Rayleigh
Our guide for school fire doors is £1,100–£2,400 per doorset fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for Rayleigh are fixed once we've measured, and include removing and disposing of old doors where they're being replaced.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.
