In Loftus
Fire door projects in and around Loftus.
There's a real mix of property types in Loftus — flats above shops, HMOs, schools, the odd care home — and the fire door rules don't bend just because a building's awkward. We've worked through most of it.
Why Loftus
What's specific about fire door work in Loftus.
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 Loftus.
Mixed property stock
Loftus 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 Loftus 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.
Working around occupants
Most Loftus jobs are in occupied buildings — flats, HMOs, care, offices. We phase the work so people aren't displaced.

On every door
What we actually check on a Loftus install.
Not a marketing list — this is the stuff that decides whether the door passes its next inspection or not.
- Hinge gauge, count and certification — three minimum on a fire door
- Threshold detail and any cold smoke seal at the bottom
- Latch and lock case fire-rated and CE/UKCA marked
- Overall fit — does it actually self-close and latch from 30°?
- Frame condition, fixings and packing material
- Intumescent and smoke seal type, position and continuity
- Signage — fire door keep shut / keep locked, where required

FAQ
Fire door questions from Loftus.
How quickly can you start a fire door job in Loftus?
Most Loftus enquiries get a survey within a few days, with installs the following week. Bigger programmes get booked around your access windows.
Will you take the old doors away?
Yes, removal and disposal are in the standard quote for Loftus jobs unless you want them left on site for some reason.
Can you work in occupied buildings in Loftus?
All the time. HMOs, flats, care, commercial. Phased works, dust kept down, residents and staff respected.
What ironmongery do you use?
Only certified components compatible with the door's tested spec. CE/UKCA-marked hinges, closers, latches, seals. No bodges.
What happens if a door fails inspection later?
If it's our install in Loftus and it's an installation issue, we come back and sort it. That's part of the workmanship guarantee.
Do I really need new doors, or can my existing ones in Loftus be brought back into compliance?
Honestly — a lot of doors fail because of gaps, seals or wrong ironmongery, not the door itself. We'll tell you straight on the survey whether your Loftus doors are remediable or if they're past it.
