Common questions in Essex
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Grays.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Grays?
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 work for landlords and managing agents in Grays?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
Are steel fire doors better than timber?
Not better — different. Steel suits heavy-use, external and high-rating locations; timber suits most internal doors.
