Common questions in Walkden

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.

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

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

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Walkden?

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