Regular fire door maintenance keeps your doors performing as designed — maintaining compliance, extending service life, and avoiding the cost of full replacement.
Fire doors are subject to daily wear and tear. Seals degrade, closers lose tension, hinges work loose, and gaps open up over time. Without regular maintenance, a door that passed inspection 12 months ago may no longer meet the required standard. Our maintenance service keeps your fire doors in continuous compliance — addressing issues before they become failures.
Replacement of worn, damaged, or missing intumescent strips and cold smoke seals to restore full fire and smoke performance.
Adjustment or replacement of self-closing devices to ensure doors close fully and correctly from all positions.
Tightening or replacement of loose or worn hinges to restore correct door alignment and gap tolerances.
Full maintenance records issued after every visit — suitable for compliance files, fire risk assessors, and insurers.
Checking and replacing intumescent strips and smoke seals where worn, damaged, or missing.
