Taunton FAQs

Which fire safety law applies in Taunton?

Taunton 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 cover the area around Taunton?

Yes. As well as Taunton itself we cover nearby towns including Bridgwater, Burnham-on-Sea and Tiverton.

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.

Do you provide paperwork?

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