In Rickmansworth
What fire door work actually looks like in Rickmansworth.
Stock around Rickmansworth is all over the place. Victorian conversions next door to '70s blocks next door to brand new builds. Each one wants a slightly different approach — frame condition, original architrave, what's behind the plaster — and you only know once you're on site with a tape.
Why Rickmansworth
What's specific about fire door work in Rickmansworth.
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 Rickmansworth.
Mixed new-build and older suburban stock
Rickmansworth has a real split between newer block developments and older suburban conversions. The newer ones usually fail on threshold gaps and the wrong closer; the older ones on seals and frame condition.
Mixed property stock
Rickmansworth 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 Rickmansworth 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 Rickmansworth jobs are in occupied buildings — flats, HMOs, care, offices. We phase the work so people aren't displaced.
