Fire Door Installation in Cornwall: questions

Do you provide paperwork?

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

Can you fit a fire door into the existing frame?

Sometimes, if the frame is sound, compatible with the new leaf and the leaf's evidence allows it. Often a complete doorset is cheaper over the door's life and easier to evidence.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Cornwall?

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