Steel fire doors in Hinckley: how we work
Need steel fire doors in Hinckley? We supply and fit complete certified doorsets across Leicestershire, starting with a free measure survey in and around LE10.

Where possible we combine Hinckley surveys with other visits in Leicestershire, such as Nuneaton and Bedworth, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
What the law says in Hinckley
In Hinckley, 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.
