Fire Door Installation in Congleton

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Congleton, our fire door installations follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

Fire door installation is the supply and fitting of a fire-resisting door, ideally as a complete doorset of leaf, frame, seals and hardware, installed exactly as its test evidence and the manufacturer's instructions require, so the finished door performs as tested. We use the same method for buildings in Congleton.

Fire Door Installation in Congleton: questions

Do you provide paperwork?

Yes. You receive the product's certification or test evidence, an installation record and photographs for each door.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Congleton?

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

What is the difference between a fire door and a fire doorset?

A fire door often means just the leaf. A doorset is the complete assembly, leaf, frame, seals and hardware, tested and supplied together. Doorsets remove much of the guesswork from installation and are usually the better choice for replacements.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Congleton?

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