Fire Door Replacement in Pontefract

We provide fire door replacements for buildings in Pontefract and the WF8 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

Common questions in Pontefract

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 Pontefract?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Pontefract 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.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Pontefract?

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.
