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.
Do you cover Ashington?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit steel fire doors throughout Ashington and the rest of Northumberland, including NE63 and nearby Blyth.
