Fire Door Surveys in London

From the WC2N district outwards, we cover London and neighbouring towns such as City of Westminster and Pimlico for fire door surveys.

In short: 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.

Typical buildings in London

Fire door work in London typically involves purpose-built blocks, mansion flats and converted terraces, where communal stair doors and flat entrance doors carry most of the fire strategy. London jobs start with a short call to agree access, followed by a fixed price in writing.

Common questions in London

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

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

Can the survey support a section 20 consultation?

Yes. The costed schedule gives a clear description of the proposed works and their budget, which you can use when consulting leaseholders. Formal consultation remains the landlord's responsibility.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in London?

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

Do you measure for new doors during the survey?

Where a door is likely to need replacing we record the leaf and opening sizes, so a replacement quotation can follow without a second visit in most cases.
