Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Gateshead

We provide fire door maintenance contracts for buildings in Gateshead and the NE8 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

A fire door maintenance contract is a planned arrangement where your fire doors are inspected on a fixed cycle and minor faults are corrected on the same visit, at agreed rates, so the doors stay compliant between full inspections rather than being fixed only when they fail.
