Timber Fire Doorsets for Dartford buildings
We cover Dartford and nearby Bexley 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.
Where possible we combine Dartford surveys with other visits in Kent, such as Bexley and Swanley, which helps keep survey dates flexible.

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.

Timber fire doors in Dartford: questions
Can you work around tenants or staff in Dartford?
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.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Dartford?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Is the survey in Dartford free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Can a timber fire door be trimmed on site?
Only within the limits the manufacturer's evidence allows, usually a few millimetres. We prefer made-to-measure doorsets so no trimming is needed.
