Questions from Whitstable clients

Do you cover the area around Whitstable?

Yes. As well as Whitstable itself we cover nearby towns including Herne Bay, Canterbury and Faversham.

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 Whitstable?

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

Do you provide paperwork?

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