Key checks for Northamptonshire projects
Doorset, not just a door
The safest route is a complete doorset with frame and hardware tested together. Mixing a leaf from one source with a frame from another needs evidence that covers the combination.
Ongoing checks
Residential blocks in England over 11 metres need regular fire door checks under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022; glazed doors are included.
Closers and gaps
Self-closing devices and correct gaps are part of the performance. We set them at installation and record them.
Regulations for Northamptonshire projects

FAQs for Northamptonshire
What does FD30 mean on a glazed door?
FD30 is a UK shorthand for a door providing 30 minutes' fire resistance. Under European classification the same door would be described with an E or EI rating, with S added where smoke control is tested.
Can a fire door be fully glazed?
Yes, some steel, aluminium and timber doorsets are tested with large or full-height glazing. The glass must be the type and size in the evidence.
Can you add glass to my existing fire door?
Cutting new apertures into a fire door is only acceptable when done under the door manufacturer's or certification scheme's instructions. Often a new doorset is the safer answer.
Do you cover all of Northamptonshire?
Yes. We take enquiries from across Northamptonshire, including Northampton and Corby, Kettering, Wellingborough, Rushden, and arrange surveys to suit your programme.
