Our Kirkby supply and fit service
We fit fire doors for schools, surgeries and care homes in Kirkby and the rest of Merseyside. 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 L32 and the surrounding area, including Maghull. Tell us your postcode and preferred dates and we'll confirm a survey slot.
