Fire Door Replacement in Lowestoft

We provide fire door replacements for buildings in Lowestoft and the NR32 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 Lowestoft.

Fire Door Replacement in Lowestoft: questions

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Lowestoft?

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

Can you price remedial work in Lowestoft from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Lowestoft, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

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.

What happens to the old doors?

They are removed from site and disposed of responsibly.
