Fire Door Installation in Weymouth

We provide fire door installations for buildings in Weymouth and the DT4 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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 Weymouth.

Fire Door Installation in Weymouth: questions

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 cover the area around Weymouth?

Yes. As well as Weymouth itself we cover nearby towns including Poole, Yeovil and Bournemouth.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Weymouth?

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

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.
