Common questions in Gainsborough

Do you cover the area around Gainsborough?

Yes. As well as Gainsborough itself we cover nearby towns including Retford, Scunthorpe and Lincoln.

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 Gainsborough?

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

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.
