Timber fire doors in Truro: how we work
Getting timber fire doors right in Truro means choosing a certified doorset for each opening and fitting it exactly as tested. That's the whole service: survey, schedule, certified doorset, careful installation and the paperwork to prove it.
We cover Truro and the rest of Cornwall, with surveys arranged around your building's access and occupancy.
What the law says in Truro
In Truro, 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.
Guide prices in Truro
Budget around £750 to £1,600 per single doorset for timber fire doors supplied and fitted in Truro, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
Each quote covers the certified doorset, standard ironmongery, fitting, removal of the old door and a handover record; anything outside that scope is shown as a separate line before you accept.
