Getting school fire doors fitted in Hinckley
Looking for school fire doors in Hinckley? Our supply and fit service covers LE10 and the surrounding area, including Nuneaton and Bedworth. We quote complete doorsets — leaf, frame, seals, hinges and closer — because that is what the fire certification actually covers.
Where possible we combine Hinckley surveys with other visits in Leicestershire, such as Nuneaton and Bedworth, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Fire door rules in Hinckley
Because Hinckley 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.
What do school fire doors cost in Hinckley?
Our guide for school fire doors is £1,100–£2,400 per doorset fitted, ex VAT. Quotes for Hinckley are fixed once we've measured, and include removing and disposing of old doors where they're being replaced.
Made-to-measure sizes for older openings, vision panels and upgraded hardware are the usual reasons a door sits towards the top of the range.
