The experts on fire safety compliance
Today, many fire doors fail to meet the safety requirements of the building they're installed in. This is either because they are not installed properly, or they are not the right kind of fire door. With a complete knowledge of the fire door products and configurations available, we can ensure that all the fire doors in your building are fit for purpose.
We work across a broad range of sectors:
- Housing associations
- Care homes
- Schools
- Hospitals
- Factories
- Warehouses
- Private landlords
Our founder, Neil Ashdown, is a leading authority on fire doors and fire safety. Following his lead, our team will determine if your fire doors meet current UK fire safety regulations. If improvement is necessary, we will help you achieve the required standard without unnecessary expense.
