Timber fire doors in Eastbourne: how we work
Getting timber fire doors right in Eastbourne 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.
Eastbourne is about 19 miles from Brighton. Wherever your building is in BN21, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
Which rules apply in Eastbourne?
Because Eastbourne 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 Eastbourne
Guide prices for timber fire doors in Eastbourne 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.
If your fire risk assessment lists specific doors, send it with your enquiry and we'll price exactly those openings.
