Fire Door Installation in Lowestoft: questions

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Lowestoft?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Lowestoft 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.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Lowestoft?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

Do you provide paperwork?

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