Fire Door Surveys in Ilkeston

We provide fire door surveys for buildings in Ilkeston and the DE7 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

A fire door survey is a more detailed version of an inspection, used when you need to plan and budget: it grades every defect by urgency, decides whether each door should be repaired, upgraded or replaced, and turns the findings into a costed schedule of works. We use the same method for buildings in Ilkeston.
