Questions from Southend-on-Sea clients

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.

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 price remedial work in Southend-on-Sea from another company's report?

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Southend-on-Sea?

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