In Maidstone
Maidstone fire door installs, end to end.
Landlords and managing agents around Maidstone 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 Maidstone
What's specific about fire door work in Maidstone.
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 Maidstone.
Mixed property stock
Maidstone 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 Maidstone 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 Maidstone jobs are in occupied buildings — flats, HMOs, care, offices. We phase the work so people aren't displaced.
Service area
Where we cover around Maidstone.
On every door
What we actually check on a Maidstone install.
Not a marketing list — this is the stuff that decides whether the door passes its next inspection or not.
- Glazing apertures — bead type, pin spacing, intumescent under bead
- 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°?
