Fire Door Replacement in Devon: questions
How long does a replacement take?
Most single doorsets are replaced within a day, including making good. Doors are never left unable to close at the end of a working day.
What happens to the old doors?
They are removed from site and disposed of responsibly.
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Devon?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Devon is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

Yes. As well as Devon itself we cover nearby towns including Plymouth, Exeter and Paignton.
