Common questions in Potters Bar

Do you cover the area around Potters Bar?

Yes. As well as Potters Bar itself we cover nearby towns including Hadley Wood, Barnet and Enfield Town.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Potters Bar?

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

When should a fire door be replaced rather than repaired?

When the leaf or frame is too damaged to repair within what its test evidence allows, when there is no evidence it is a fire door, or when the repair would cost more than a new doorset.
