Fire Door Repairs in Cheltenham

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Cheltenham, our fire door repairs follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

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 Cheltenham.

Cheltenham FAQs

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

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Cheltenham, 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.

Which fire safety law applies in Cheltenham?

Cheltenham is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Can you fill a large gap with extra intumescent strip?

Not as a general fix. Gaps outside tolerance are usually corrected by re-hanging, lipping or adjusting the frame, because oversized intumescent strips are not a substitute for a door that fits.
