Fire door specialists
We provide fire door installation and replacement across Crawley and West Sussex for residential, communal and commercial properties. We supply and fit fire-rated doorsets, frames and associated components, making sure each installation is properly fitted and suited to the existing opening.
Our carpentry background means we can deal with the practical installation details, including frame preparation, accurate fitting, door alignment and gap checks, rather than treating the door as a standalone product.
With NVQ Level 2 & 3 in Carpentry & Joinery and specialist fire-door training, we carry out fire-door work in line with BS 8214, alongside the relevant door specification and project requirements.
