Timber fire doors in Croydon: how we work
We cover Croydon and nearby South Croydon for timber fire doors, with surveys booked around your building's access and occupancy. Each door is quoted individually, so you can see what every opening costs and why.
Croydon is about 9 miles from London. Wherever your building is in CR7, we arrange survey and fitting dates around access and occupancy.
Which rules apply in Croydon?
Because Croydon 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 Croydon
Budget around £750 to £1,600 per single doorset for timber fire doors supplied and fitted in Croydon, 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.
The biggest price drivers are leaf size, glazing, finish and ironmongery; upper floors without lifts and restricted parking can also affect fitting cost.
Buildings that need timber fire doors
In Croydon, timber fire doors are typically needed in period buildings needing bespoke sizes and offices and hotels.
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.
- Period buildings needing bespoke sizes
- Offices and hotels
- Flats and HMOs
