Getting timber fire doors fitted in Peterlee
We fit timber fire doorsets in paint, laminate and veneer in Peterlee and the rest of County Durham. The process is simple: we survey and measure each opening, propose a certified doorset for it, and give you a fixed price. Fitting is booked once the doorsets are made, usually with no door left out of action overnight.
Peterlee is about 19 miles from Darlington. Wherever your building is in SR8, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
Fire door rules in Peterlee
In Peterlee, 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.
Timber fire doors prices in Peterlee
Budget around £750 to £1,600 per single doorset for timber fire doors supplied and fitted in Peterlee, 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.
