Common questions in Gravesend

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 Gravesend?

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

Can residents stay in while flat doors are replaced?

Yes. Flat entrance doors are usually replaced in a single visit and the flat is never left without a lockable door.

Do you cover the area around Gravesend?

Yes. As well as Gravesend itself we cover nearby towns including Grays, Strood and South Ockendon.
