Steel fire doors in Wigan

Getting steel fire doors fitted in Wigan

We cover Wigan and nearby Hindley for steel fire doors, with surveys booked around your building's access and occupancy. Each door is quoted individually, so you can see what every opening costs and why.

Wigan is about 17 miles from Manchester; we cover both, along with Hindley, Ashton-in-Makerfield and Westhoughton.

What the law says in Wigan

Fire doors in Wigan sit under English rules: Approved Document B sets what goes in, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 covers keeping doors effective in non-domestic premises and shared parts of residential buildings, and the 2022 regulations require regular door checks in residential buildings taller than 11 metres. Higher-risk buildings — 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes — also come under the Building Safety Act 2022.

Guide prices in Wigan

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