Getting steel fire doors fitted in Eltham

Looking for steel fire doors in Eltham? Our supply and fit service covers SE9 and the surrounding area, including Blackheath and Welling. We quote complete doorsets — leaf, frame, seals, hinges and closer — because that is what the fire certification actually covers.

Fire door rules in Eltham

In Eltham, 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.

What do steel fire doors cost in Eltham?

Budget around £1,100 to £2,600 per single doorset for steel fire doors supplied and fitted in Eltham, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.

Central and inner London work can cost a little more where parking, loading restrictions or out-of-hours access apply; we show any access costs as a separate line.

The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.

Typical uses in Eltham

Common questions in Greater London

Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Eltham?

Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.

Do you remove the old doors?

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

Can you work around tenants or staff in Eltham?

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.

Are steel fire doors better than timber?

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