Fire Door Repairs in Grays

From the RM17 district outwards, we cover Grays and neighbouring towns such as South Ockendon and Gravesend for fire door repairs.

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.

Common questions in Grays

Can you price remedial work in Grays from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Grays, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

Can a damaged fire door be repaired or does it need replacing?

Many faults can be repaired: closers, hinges, seals, small edge damage and beads. Holes through the leaf, major splits, delamination or damage to the frame often mean the door should be replaced. We will tell you which applies and why.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Grays?

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

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.
