In York
York fire door installs, end to end.
A lot of our York work is in occupied buildings. Tenants in, staff working, kids in classrooms. So we plan around that — phased installs, dust sheets, cleaning down at the end of each day. Nobody wants a contractor camping out for a fortnight.
Why York
What's specific about fire door work in York.
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 York.
Student HMOs and PBSA
York's big student population means a lot of HMO bedroom-door programmes and purpose-built student accommodation. Vacation windows are tight — we plan installs around lease changeover.
Listed and conservation-area buildings
Plenty of York buildings are listed or in a conservation area, so fire doors often need to look right as well as perform. Painted finishes, traditional architrave reinstatement, ironmongery that doesn't shout — all part of the spec.
Mixed property stock
York 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 York 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.
Service area
Where we cover around York.
On every door
What we actually check on a York install.
Not a marketing list — this is the stuff that decides whether the door passes its next inspection or not.
- Architrave reinstatement without blocking the seal
- Door leaf certification label still present and readable
- Gap tolerance top, sides and threshold (3mm ±1, 8–10mm at the floor)

Why pick us in York
The standard your York fire doors deserve.
Fire doors are a regulated, life-safety product. Treat them like ordinary joinery and they'll fail their first proper inspection. Here's how we keep yours compliant.
- Documented sign-offPhotos and written records on every door. Drop it in your fire safety file and forget about it.
- Tested-spec installsHinges, closers, latches and seals all match the door's certification. No improvised swaps because the van's missing a part.
- Tidy site standardsEspecially in occupied buildings. We leave it cleaner than we found it — usually annoys the cleaner.
- Honest quotesItemised, no surprise extras. If a door can be remediated rather than ripped out, we'll tell you.
