Our Carshalton supply and fit service
Getting school fire doors right in Carshalton means choosing a certified doorset for each opening and fitting it exactly as tested. That's the whole service: survey, schedule, certified doorset, careful installation and the paperwork to prove it.
Whether your building is in central Carshalton or on its edges towards Wallington, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
Fire door rules in Carshalton
Because Carshalton 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.
Guide prices in Carshalton
Budget around £1,100 to £2,400 per doorset for school fire doors supplied and fitted in Carshalton, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
Central and inner London work can cost a little more where parking, loading restrictions or out-of-hours access apply; we show any access costs as a separate line.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.
Where school fire doors are needed
Wherever they are in Carshalton, school fire doors are most often specified for nurseries and care and nursing homes.
London has the UK's largest concentration of purpose-built flats and high-rise residential blocks, so flat entrance doors, communal corridor doors and regulation 10 checks drive much of the demand.
