Fire Door Replacement in Bicester

We provide fire door replacements for buildings in Bicester and the OX26 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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 Bicester.

Fire Door Replacement in Bicester: questions

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Bicester?

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

What happens to the old doors?

They are removed from site and disposed of responsibly.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Bicester?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

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.
