Stairwell fire doors in Aldershot

Stairwell fire doors in Aldershot: how we work

We fit doors onto protected stairs and escape routes in Aldershot and the rest of Hampshire. 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.

Aldershot is about 37 miles from Southampton; we cover both, along with Farnham, Farnborough and Fleet.
