Typical Chelsea fire door jobs

Many Chelsea buildings are mixed use, with flats above shops and offices, where the stair door protecting the flats is often the weakest point. Where a Chelsea building has had a recent fire risk assessment, send it over and we will price against its actions.

Fire Door Installation in Chelsea: questions

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.

Do you cover the area around Chelsea?

Yes. As well as Chelsea itself we cover nearby towns including Battersea, Fulham and Pimlico.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Chelsea?

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