Steel fire doors in Gateshead: how we work
Need steel fire doors in Gateshead? We supply and fit complete certified doorsets across Tyne and Wear, starting with a free measure survey in and around NE8. 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 Gateshead surveys with other visits in Tyne and Wear, such as Newcastle upon Tyne and Felling, which helps keep survey dates flexible.
Fire door rules in Gateshead
In Gateshead, 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.
