Security fire doors in Chichester: how we work
We cover Chichester and nearby Bognor Regis for security fire doors, with surveys booked around your building's access and occupancy. Each door is quoted individually, so you can see what every opening costs and why.
Where possible we combine Chichester surveys with other visits in West Sussex, such as Bognor Regis and Havant, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Fire door rules in Chichester
Fire doors in Chichester sit under English rules: Approved Document B sets what goes in, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 covers keeping doors effective in non-domestic premises and shared parts of residential buildings, and the 2022 regulations require regular door checks in residential buildings taller than 11 metres. Higher-risk buildings — 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes — also come under the Building Safety Act 2022.
Cost of security fire doors in West Sussex
Guide prices for security fire doors in Chichester run from about £1,600 to £3,500 per single doorset, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.
Each quote covers the certified doorset, standard ironmongery, fitting, removal of the old door and a handover record; anything outside that scope is shown as a separate line before you accept.

Security fire doors in Chichester: questions
Can you work around tenants or staff in Chichester?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
What does a Chichester quote include?
Survey, certified doorset, ironmongery, installation, removal of old doors and a handover pack. VAT is added at the standard rate.
Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Chichester?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Can any fire door be made secure?
Adding security hardware to a fire door without evidence can void its fire rating. Choose a doorset certified for both.
