Stairwell & Escape Route Doors for Sittingbourne buildings
We fit doors onto protected stairs and escape routes in Sittingbourne and the rest of Kent. 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 Sittingbourne or on its edges towards Faversham, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
