Fire Door Repairs in Chester

Chester landlords, managing agents and facilities teams can book fire door repairs with straightforward reports and fixed prices.

A fire door repair fixes a specific fault on a fire door, such as a broken closer, missing seal, loose hinge or damaged edge, so the door can again close, latch and resist fire and smoke as it was designed to. We use the same method for buildings in Chester.

Common questions in Chester

Do you use the original manufacturer's parts?

Where they are available and appropriate. Otherwise we use components with suitable fire test evidence for the door type.

Can you repair a fire door from photos?

We can usually diagnose and price common faults from clear photos of the whole door, the edges and the hardware. Some faults, such as a warped leaf, need a site visit to measure.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Chester?

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

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Chester?

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.
