Stairwell & Escape Route Doors for Wolverhampton buildings
We fit doors onto protected stairs and escape routes in Wolverhampton and the rest of West Midlands. 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 Wolverhampton or on its edges towards Wednesfield, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
Which rules apply in Wolverhampton?
Because Wolverhampton is in England, the starting point is Approved Document B for the specification and the Fire Safety Order 2005 for ongoing duties. Blocks with a storey above 11 metres also fall under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: communal fire doors checked at least every three months, flat front doors at least every year.
What do stairwell fire doors cost in Wolverhampton?
Budget around £850 to £1,400 per single doorset for stairwell fire doors supplied and fitted in Wolverhampton, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
Made-to-measure sizes for older openings, vision panels and upgraded hardware are the usual reasons a door sits towards the top of the range.
