Fire Door Installation in Salford

From the M6 district outwards, we cover Salford and neighbouring towns such as Eccles and Old Trafford for fire door installations.

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.

Questions from Salford clients

Do you provide paperwork?

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

Do you work in occupied buildings in Salford?

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

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Salford?

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