Stairwell & Escape Route Doors for Old Trafford buildings
We cover Old Trafford and nearby Stretford for stairwell 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 Old Trafford surveys with other visits in Greater Manchester, such as Stretford and Salford, which helps keep survey dates flexible.

New and replacement fire doors in Old Trafford are specified under the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person keep fire doors in working order, and in residential buildings with a storey above 11 metres regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 adds quarterly checks of communal doors and annual checks of flat entrance doors.
