Steel fire doors in Chatham

Our Chatham supply and fit service

Need steel fire doors in Chatham? We supply and fit complete certified doorsets across Kent, starting with a free measure survey in and around ME4. Every quote lists each door, its rating and the manufacturer's certificate reference, so you know exactly what is going in before anything is ordered.

Where possible we combine Chatham surveys with other visits in Kent, such as Rochester and Gillingham, which helps keep survey dates flexible.

Which rules apply in Chatham?

Higher-risk buildings — 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes — also come under the Building Safety Act 2022.
