Fire Door Closer Repairs in Seaford

Fire Door Closer Repairs in Seaford, East Sussex: every door logged, photographed and graded, with a clear price for anything that needs putting right.

A fire door closer is the self-closing device that pulls a fire door shut after it has been opened. If the closer cannot close the door fully into its frame and engage the latch, the door cannot hold back fire or smoke. We use the same method for buildings in Seaford.

Questions from Seaford clients

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Seaford?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Seaford is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

Do you cover the area around Seaford?

Yes. As well as Seaford itself we cover nearby towns including Rottingdean, Eastbourne and Hailsham.

Why won't my fire door close properly?

Common causes are a closer set too weak, a latch out of line with the keep, dropped hinges, a seal binding at the edge, or flooring that has raised the threshold. We find the cause before adjusting the closer.

What closer does a fire door need?

A closer tested to BS EN 1154 with a power size suited to the door's width and weight, and evidence it can be used on the door type. Concealed closers need specific test evidence for the door.
