Regulations for timber fire doors in Scottish Borders
Scotland has its own system: new and replacement fire doors in Scottish Borders are designed to the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004 and the Technical Handbooks (Section 2, Fire). For non-domestic premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on whoever controls the building.

Expect roughly £750–£1,600 per single doorset for timber fire doors, fitted, ex VAT. Your Scottish Borders quote is fixed after survey and itemised door by door.

Your questions answered
Which rules apply in Scottish Borders?
Doors are specified to the Scottish Building Standards Technical Handbooks and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
Can you fit just one door?
Yes — from a single door to a full building.
Do you remove the old doors?
Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset.
Are timber doors as good as steel?
For FD30 and FD60 in most buildings, yes. Steel suits plant areas, high security and longer ratings.
