Our Brent supply and fit service
Getting timber fire doors right in Brent 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.
Brent is about 8 miles from London; we cover both, along with Wembley, Harrow and Greenford.
What the law says in Brent
Because Brent 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 Brent
Budget around £750 to £1,600 per single doorset for timber fire doors supplied and fitted in Brent, excluding VAT. We price each opening separately so nothing is hidden in a lump sum.
Central and inner London work can cost a little more where parking, loading restrictions or out-of-hours access apply; we show any access costs as a separate line.
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.
Where timber fire doors are needed
Flats and HMOs and period buildings needing bespoke sizes are among the most common settings for timber fire doors, in Brent as elsewhere.
London has the UK's largest concentration of purpose-built flats and high-rise residential blocks, so flat entrance doors, communal corridor doors and regulation 10 checks drive much of the demand.
- Flats and HMOs
- Period buildings needing bespoke sizes
- Offices and hotels
- Schools and care homes
