Fire Door Hinges & Ironmongery in Bexhill-on-Sea

From the TN40 district outwards, we cover Bexhill-on-Sea and neighbouring towns such as Hastings and Hailsham for fire door ironmongery repairs.

Fire door ironmongery is the hardware on a fire door, hinges, latches, locks, handles, closers, letter plates and spy holes, which must be suitable for use on fire doors so it does not create a weak point when the door is exposed to fire. We use the same method for buildings in Bexhill-on-Sea.

Common questions in Bexhill-on-Sea

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Bexhill-on-Sea?

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

Do letter plates on flat doors need to be fire-rated?

Yes, where the flat entrance door is a fire door. Fire-rated letter plates include intumescent liners that close the opening in a fire.

Are cat flaps allowed in fire doors?

Not unless the flap is part of the door's tested design. A cat flap cut into a fire door, including many flat entrance doors, will normally make it non-compliant.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Bexhill-on-Sea?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Bexhill-on-Sea can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
