Fire Door Replacement in Motherwell

From the ML1 district outwards, we cover Motherwell and neighbouring towns such as Hamilton and Meikle Earnock for fire door replacements.

Fire door replacement means removing a door that can no longer be repaired to its certified standard, or that was never a fire door, and installing a new fire-resisting doorset in its place. We use the same method for buildings in Motherwell.

Motherwell FAQs

Does regulation 10 apply in Motherwell?

No. Motherwell is in Scotland, which has its own fire safety law. The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 cover workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises; common parts of private blocks of flats are largely outside them.

Do you cover the area around Motherwell?

Yes. As well as Motherwell itself we cover nearby towns including Hamilton, Meikle Earnock and Wishaw.

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.

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.
