Because Torquay 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.

Common questions in Devon

Which rules do steel fire doors in Torquay need to meet?

They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.

Can you fit just one door in Torquay?

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

Do you remove the old doors?

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

Are steel fire doors better than timber?

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