Certified timber fire doors for Nelson
We fit timber fire doorsets in paint, laminate and veneer in Nelson and the rest of Lancashire. 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.
Whether your building is in central Nelson or on its edges towards Colne, survey and fitting dates are arranged around your access needs, with occupied buildings worked in planned phases.
