School fire doors in London: how we work
For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in London, we provide fire doors for schools, surgeries and care homes with one fixed quote. A free survey comes first, then a door-by-door schedule, then installation to the manufacturer's instructions and a handover pack for your records.
We cover London and the rest of Greater London, with surveys arranged around your building's access and occupancy.
Regulations for school fire doors in Greater London
In London, 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 London
Expect roughly £1,100–£2,400 per doorset for school fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your London quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
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 used in London
In London, school fire doors are typically needed in GP surgeries and clinics 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.
