Timber fire doors in Chichester: questions
Can you work around tenants or staff in Chichester?
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.
Do you cover Chichester?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit timber fire doors throughout Chichester and the rest of West Sussex, including PO19 and nearby Bognor Regis.
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Chichester?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Are timber doors as good as steel?
For FD30 and FD60 in most buildings, yes. Steel suits plant areas, high security and longer ratings.
