Getting timber fire doors fitted in Derbyshire
Our Derbyshire service covers timber fire doors for flats, HMOs, workplaces, schools and homes, including Derby, Chesterfield and Long Eaton.
What the law says in Derbyshire
Because Derbyshire 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.
Guide prices in Derbyshire
Guide prices for timber fire doors in Derbyshire run from about £750 to £1,600 per single doorset, supplied and fitted, ex VAT. Size, glazing, finish and ironmongery move the price, and the survey quote is fixed.
We show each door's price separately, so if budget is tight you can phase the work and start with the doors your fire risk assessment prioritises.

Questions about timber fire doors in Derbyshire
How quickly can you survey in Derbyshire?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine visits with other work in Derbyshire. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Which rules apply in Derbyshire?
Doors are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Can you work around tenants or staff?
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.
Can I paint a timber fire door?
Yes — but never paint over intumescent or smoke seals.
