Fire Door Installation in Southampton

From the SO14 district outwards, we cover Southampton and neighbouring towns such as Hythe and Totton 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. We use the same method for buildings in Southampton.

Southampton FAQs

Do you cover the area around Southampton?

Yes. As well as Southampton itself we cover nearby towns including Hythe, Totton and Eastleigh.

Which fire safety law applies in Southampton?

Southampton is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Do you provide paperwork?

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

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.
