In Solihull
Solihull fire door installs, end to end.
Older properties in Solihull usually mean the existing frame's out of square by a fair bit. You can't just plane the door down to fit — it stops being a tested set the second you do. We line and pack the frame instead, keep the door spec intact.
Why Solihull
What's specific about fire door work in Solihull.
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 Solihull.
Mixed property stock
Solihull 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 Solihull 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 Solihull jobs are in occupied buildings — flats, HMOs, care, offices. We phase the work so people aren't displaced.
Service area
Where we cover around Solihull.
On every door
What we actually check on a Solihull install.
Not a marketing list — this is the stuff that decides whether the door passes its next inspection or not.
- 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
- Closer model, force setting and whether it actually closes from any angle
- Architrave reinstatement without blocking the seal
