Common questions in Barnstaple

What do FD30 and FD60 mean?

They describe how long the door is designed to resist fire in a test: 30 or 60 minutes. An S after the rating, such as FD30S, means the door also controls the passage of cold smoke.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Barnstaple?

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

Can you price remedial work in Barnstaple from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Barnstaple, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.
