Stairwell fire doors in Leicestershire: how we work
We supply and fit stairwell fire doors across Leicestershire, including Leicester, Loughborough and Hinckley. Every job starts with a free measure survey and ends with a handover pack listing each certified doorset fitted.
What the law says in Leicestershire
Fire doors in Leicestershire sit under English rules: Approved Document B sets what goes in, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 covers keeping doors effective in non-domestic premises and shared parts of residential buildings, and the 2022 regulations require regular door checks in residential buildings taller than 11 metres. Higher-risk buildings — 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes — also come under the Building Safety Act 2022.
What do stairwell fire doors cost in Leicestershire?
Expect roughly £850–£1,400 per single doorset for stairwell fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Leicestershire quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.
Each quote covers the certified doorset, standard ironmongery, fitting, removal of the old door and a handover record; anything outside that scope is shown as a separate line before you accept.

Common questions in Leicestershire
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset.
Can you work around tenants or staff?
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.
What signs do stair doors need?
Most need 'Fire door keep shut' on both faces. Automatic doors on hold-open devices need 'Automatic fire door keep clear'.
