We provide fire door ironmongery repairs for buildings in Litherland and the L21 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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 Litherland.

Questions from Litherland clients

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Litherland?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Litherland 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 Litherland?

Yes. As well as Litherland itself we cover nearby towns including Bootle, Maghull and Liverpool.

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 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.
