Timber Fire Doorsets for Derby buildings
We fit timber fire doorsets in paint, laminate and veneer in Derby and the rest of Derbyshire. 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.
Surveys in Derby are booked around your access needs, and we cover the wider Derbyshire area too.
Fire door rules in Derby
Because Derby 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.
What do timber fire doors cost in Derby?
Guide prices for timber fire doors in Derby 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.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.

Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Derby?
Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
How quickly can you survey in Derby?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Derby visits with other work in Derbyshire. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Which rules do timber fire doors in Derby need to meet?
They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.

For FD30 and FD60 in most buildings, yes. Steel suits plant areas, high security and longer ratings.
