Steel fire doors in Ipswich: how we work

Looking for steel fire doors in Ipswich? Our supply and fit service covers IP1 and the surrounding area, including Harwich and Felixstowe. We quote complete doorsets — leaf, frame, seals, hinges and closer — because that is what the fire certification actually covers.

We cover Ipswich and the rest of Suffolk, with surveys arranged around your building's access and occupancy.

Fire door rules in Ipswich

Because Ipswich is in England, the starting point is Approved Document B for the specification and the Fire Safety Order 2005 for ongoing duties. Blocks with a storey above 11 metres also fall under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: communal fire doors checked at least every three months, flat front doors at least every year.

Questions about steel fire doors in Ipswich

Can you fit just one door in Ipswich?

Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Suffolk.

Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Ipswich?

Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.

Do you remove the old doors?

Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Ipswich.

Are steel fire doors better than timber?

Not better — different. Steel suits heavy-use, external and high-rating locations; timber suits most internal doors.
