Fire Door Closer Repairs in Crawley

We provide fire door closer repairs for buildings in Crawley and the RH11 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

In short: 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.

Fire Door Closer Repairs in Crawley: questions

My door slams. Is that a fault?

Yes. A slamming door wears hinges and frames and can injure users. The closing speed and latching action can usually be adjusted.

Do you cover the area around Crawley?

Yes. As well as Crawley itself we cover nearby towns including Horley, Horsham and East Grinstead.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Crawley?

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