Fire doors adjusted, repaired and replaced

A fire door only works if it closes on its own, fits its frame and has its seals and closer in place. Our trained in-house maintenance team adjusts and replaces fire doors for landlords, HMOs, holiday lets and blocks.

Fire doors

a fire door that doesn't close isn't a fire door

Doors drop, closers wear out, intumescent strips get painted over and gaps open up as buildings move. Small faults like these are easy to miss, and easy to fix.

Fire doors are installed and adjusted by a fully trained member of our in-house maintenance team, the same team that looks after the properties we manage. After every visit you get a job report with photos of each door, which helps you keep your fire safety records up to date.

Doors that will not closeHinges, closers and frames adjusted so the door self-closes and latches every time.

Good to know

We adjust, repair and replace fire doors and their hardware. Formal fire risk assessments are a separate service and are not part of our work.

What to do while you wait

  1. Close each fire door from fully open. It should shut and latch on its own without sticking.
  2. Look at the gaps around the door. Big or uneven gaps, especially at the top, are a common fault.
  3. Check the seals in the frame or door edge are there, intact and not painted over.
  4. Make sure fire doors are never wedged open, and tell tenants why.

If a fire door on an escape route has been removed or badly damaged, treat it as urgent and call us.

If anyone is in danger, call 999. If you smell gas, call 0800 111 999.

Questions

good to know

Who does the work?

Fire doors are installed and adjusted by a fully trained member of our in-house maintenance team, not a subcontractor.

Can you check all the fire doors in my property?

Yes. Book a visit and we will go through each door, fix what we can on the day and quote for anything that needs replacing.

Do you work on HMOs and blocks?

Yes. We work for landlords with single lets, HMOs and blocks, and letting agents with portfolios. Talk to us about covering several properties.

Will I get a record of the work?

Every visit comes with a job report and photos of each door and what we did, which helps you keep your fire safety records up to date.
