In Barnstaple
How we handle fire doors around Barnstaple.
Landlords and managing agents around Barnstaple are getting a much harder time from fire risk assessors than they were five years ago. The paperwork side matters as much as the door itself now, and that's the bit we've made painless.
Why Barnstaple
What's specific about fire door work in Barnstaple.
Every area has its own quirks — building age, tenure mix, the kind of assessor activity going on locally. Here's what shapes the work in Barnstaple.
Salt-air corrosion on hardware
Coastal stock around Barnstaple eats hinges and closers faster than inland sites. We spec marine-grade or stainless ironmongery where it makes sense, so the door still self-closes after a couple of winters.
Holiday lets and short-term rentals
Lots of converted seafront properties around Barnstaple are short-let now, which brings them under the same fire safety regs as a small HMO. Surveyors are checking flat-entrance doors much more carefully than they used to.
Mixed property stock
Barnstaple has the usual mix of older conversions, post-war blocks and newer infill — each demands a slightly different approach to surveying and install, which is why we never quote without seeing the doors.
Tighter assessor scrutiny
Fire risk assessors covering Barnstaple are flagging far more door issues than they were a few years ago. Most of our work here starts from a recent FRA action list.
