Stairwell & Escape Route Doors for Liverpool buildings
We fit doors onto protected stairs and escape routes in Liverpool and the rest of Merseyside. 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.
Surveys in Liverpool are booked around your access needs, and we cover the wider Merseyside area too.
