Steel fire doors in Gillingham: how we work
We cover Gillingham and nearby Chatham 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.
Where possible we combine Gillingham surveys with other visits in Kent, such as Chatham and Rochester, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
What the law says in Gillingham
In Gillingham, 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.
