Our Bowthorpe supply and fit service
If your fire risk assessment in Bowthorpe has flagged doors to replace, we can schedule, quote and fit doors onto protected stairs and escape routes to match its recommendations. Surveys in NR5 are free and quotes are fixed and itemised.
Whether your building is in central Bowthorpe or on its edges towards Norwich, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
What the law says in Bowthorpe
In Bowthorpe, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.
