Fire door manufacturing
We manufacture BM TRADA Q-Mark certified FD30s and FD60 fire doorsets using FSC-certified timber and high-pressure laminates. Our bespoke production process accommodates custom dimensions, finishes, and integrated safety features like anti-bacterial coatings and acoustic enhancements. Each doorset undergoes rigorous testing to ensure compliance with current fire safety regulations.
Fire door installation
Our certified Q-Mark installers deliver precision fitting services for fire doorsets in both new builds and retrofit projects. We specialize in occupied environments like hospitals and airports, maintaining operational continuity while ensuring proper door functionality. All installations include post-completion testing and certification documentation.
Architectural ironmongery
We supply and fit fully compatible fire-rated ironmongery including hinges, closers, and security locks. Our GAI-qualified team ensures component compatibility with door specifications while maintaining aesthetic requirements. This service includes coordinated scheduling with doorset deliveries for seamless project timelines.
CPD training sessions
Our CPD-certified training covers fire door regulations, specification requirements, and installation best practices. Delivered in-person or via Microsoft Teams, these sessions help architects and contractors understand fire safety compliance, testing procedures, and maintenance requirements for certified doorsets.
BIM model creation
Our BIM service generates intelligent 3D models of fire doorsets that automatically update with specification changes. This digital tool enables precise coordination with building systems, reduces design errors, and improves construction efficiency through accurate pre-construction visualization.
