Steel fire doors in Exeter

Steel Fire Doors for Exeter buildings

For landlords, managing agents, businesses and homeowners in Exeter, we provide steel fire doorsets with one fixed quote. A free survey comes first, then a door-by-door schedule, then installation to the manufacturer's instructions and a handover pack for your records.

Exeter is about 37 miles from Plymouth. Wherever your building is in EX4, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.

What the law says in Exeter

In Exeter, 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.

Your questions answered

Can you fit just one door in Exeter?

Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Devon.

Can you work around tenants or staff in Exeter?

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.

Do you remove the old doors?

Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Exeter.

Are steel fire doors better than timber?

Not better — different. Steel suits heavy-use, external and high-rating locations; timber suits most internal doors.
