Fire Doors in Reading
Fire Doors for Reading premises, inside our regular working area.
What we do in Reading
If a fire risk assessment for your Reading premises has flagged doors that fail, we replace them with certified doorsets or put right the ones worth saving.
Each door is fitted exactly as its maker tested it, with the right gaps, seals and approved hardware, and you get a record for every one. We work in shops, flats above shops, offices and industrial units in Calcot, Caversham, Earley and Shinfield.
Reading is inside our regular working area, roughly within 100 miles of Birmingham, so we can survey, fit and come back for adjustments without long waits.
Shopping streets and planning in Reading
Reading Borough Council covers the town itself, but Woodley, Earley and Wokingham are in Wokingham Borough, and Calcot falls under West Berkshire. These are separate planning authorities.
Many Reading premises are offices and business-park units as well as shops, and we fit aluminium doors, automatic entrances and security doors for those too.
What you get from us
The same standard on every fire doors job, whichever town it is in.
Correct to the maker's test
Gaps, seals and hardware are fitted exactly as the doorset was tested, which is the only way the rating holds.
Traceable certification
Every door carries a label your assessor can check against the certificate.
Paperwork for each door
You receive a record with location, rating and photos to keep with your fire risk assessment.
Remedial work too
We fix failing doors where the door itself is sound, and replace those that cannot be saved.

From first call to finished job
The steps for a fire doors job, in the order they happen.
Read the assessment
Send us your fire risk assessment or list of doors. We work from what it says each door must achieve.
Inspect each door
We measure openings, check frames and walls, and decide whether to repair or replace each door.
Door schedule and price
You receive a schedule listing each door, its rating and the work needed, with a fixed price.
Install
Doors are hung, sealed and fitted with approved hardware, then closers are adjusted.
Hand over the records
You get photos, labels and a written record for every door.
Fire door prices
The rating, size and hardware chosen set the price for each doorset. These are typical per-door figures.
Prices are before VAT and per door. We confirm the exact figure in writing after the survey.
Questions people ask about fire doors
It means the door also has smoke seals. FD30 resists fire for 30 minutes; FD30S does the same and also limits cold smoke passing around the edges.
Only with parts approved for that door. Ordinary hardware can create a weak spot or remove intumescent material, which breaks the certification.
Doors in busy areas are often checked every few months, and all doors at least once a year. Your fire risk assessment should set the frequency.
Most must. Doors to cupboards that are kept locked are a common exception. Your fire risk assessment will say which doors need closers.
