Fire Door Installation in Greater Manchester: 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.

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 Greater Manchester?

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

Do you cover the area around Greater Manchester?

Yes. As well as Greater Manchester itself we cover nearby towns including Manchester, Oldham and Wigan.
