Overview
## What we do, who it's for, and why it matters.

### What it is
A steel fire door is a tested doorset assembly — leaf, frame, intumescent seals, ironmongery and glazing — certified to resist fire and smoke for a defined period (FD30, FD60, FD90 or FD120 minutes). The door, frame, hinges, locks, closer and seals are all tested together; substituting any component breaks the certification.

### Who it's for
Building owners, facilities managers, main contractors, fire engineers, housing associations, public-sector estate teams and industrial operators with statutory fire compartmentation obligations.

### When you need it
You need a fire door specialist at new-build, on a fire risk assessment finding, after damage to an existing fire door, when changing the use of a compartment, or when a fire door inspection has flagged non-compliant components.

### Why a specialist matters
Fire doors are the most heavily regulated building component most operators own. Since the post-Grenfell regulatory tightening, certification, traceability and competence of installer are scrutinised by insurers, the SFRS and (where applicable) the building owner under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005. A non-certified install is, in regulatory terms, no fire door at all.

 The Cost of Inaction
## What happens when the problem is left.
Fire door non-compliance does not announce itself until the worst possible moment. The vast majority of failed inspections come down to small details — wrong gap, missing intumescent, swapped hinge, removed closer.

### Catastrophic life safety risk
A failed fire door is the single biggest factor in fire spread between compartments — and the most preventable.

### Personal liability under Fire (Scotland) Act 2005
Designated 'duty holders' are personally liable for fire safety failings in non-domestic premises.

### Insurance invalidation
Insurers routinely decline fire-related claims where compartmentation has been compromised by uncertified door alterations.

### Tenant and lease consequences
Commercial leases almost always make the tenant responsible for compartmentation — non-compliance triggers dilapidations and remediation costs at lease end.

### Common mistakes we're called in to correct
Substituting hinges, closers or locks without re-testing certification.
- Drilling additional holes (cabling, signage) through the leaf or frame.
- Wedging fire doors open with non-magnetic hold-opens.
- Allowing painter or joiner to 'adjust' the leaf gap with planing.
- Operating without a recorded six-monthly fire door inspection regime.

Our Process
## A disciplined five-step delivery — survey to certification.
01

### Survey &amp; Compliance Audit
We attend, measure the opening, identify the compartmentation requirement (FD30–FD120) and audit any existing assembly against current third-party certification.

02

### Specification
We specify the certified doorset — leaf, frame, hinges, closer, lock, intumescent, smoke seals and any vision panel — as a complete tested assembly.

03

### Supply
Doorsets are ordered as certified kits from third-party assessed manufacturers (Certifire / BWF) — every component traceable to test evidence.

04

### Installation
Trained fire door installers fit to manufacturer instructions, with intumescent collars, correct gaps, and certified ironmongery scheduling.

05

### Certification &amp; Handover
We hand over a complete compliance pack — door schedule, certificates, ironmongery list, intumescent specification and as-installed photographs — suitable for SFRS and insurer audit.

Benefits
## What you get — concrete, not generic.

### Verified life safety
Every doorset installed as a tested certified kit — no substitution, no improvisation.

### Documented compliance

### Programmed for live buildings

Specification Detail
## The detail that separates a 15-year asset from a 3-year liability.
Fire door competence has become its own discipline. Since the introduction of Approved Document B revisions and the Building Safety Act framework, third-party certification of both the door and the installer is now industry standard.

### Materials we work with

- Steel doorsets with mineral or rockwool cores rated FD30–FD120
- Galvanised steel frames with welded corners and integrated intumescent seals
- Certified hinges (CE marked, fire tested) — typically three per leaf, four for FD90+
- Overhead and concealed door closers tested as part of the doorset assembly
- Mortice locks, latches and panic hardware certified for fire-rated use
- Intumescent and cold-smoke seals (Lorient, Pyroplex) appropriate to leaf rating

### Methods &amp; systems

- Survey to BS 8214 and BS 9999 compartmentation requirements
- Installation to manufacturer's third-party assessed instructions
- Gap setting (typically 2–4mm leaf-to-frame) measured with feeler gauges
- Intumescent collar fitting around all penetrations
- Photographic record of every install for the compliance pack
- Six-monthly inspection regimes to BS 8214 / Regulation 10 standards

### Variations of this service
