Certified stairwell fire doors for Greenwich
We fit doors onto protected stairs and escape routes in Greenwich and the rest of Greater London. 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.
Whether your building is in central Greenwich or on its edges towards Blackheath, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
Regulations for stairwell fire doors in Greater London
Because Greenwich 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 stairwell fire doors cost in Greenwich?
Guide prices for stairwell fire doors in Greenwich run from about £850 to £1,400 per single doorset, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.
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 stairwell fire doors are needed
Wherever they are in Greenwich, stairwell fire doors are most often specified for stair cores in flats and offices and lift lobbies.
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.

Stairwell fire doors in Greenwich: questions
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Greenwich.
Can you fit just one door in Greenwich?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Greater London.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Greenwich?
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.
Which way should an escape door open?
In the direction of escape where the number of people using it is high — Approved Document B sets the thresholds. Many small-occupancy doors can open either way.
