Where possible we combine Eccles surveys with other visits in Greater Manchester, such as Swinton and Salford, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Fire door rules in Eccles
In Eccles, 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.
Cost of stairwell fire doors in Greater Manchester
Expect roughly £850–£1,400 per single doorset for stairwell fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Eccles quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
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.
