Fire and security doors in Northumberland
Landlords with mixed-use buildings in the North East can ask us to go through the door schedule for a Northumberland property and price the changes together.
Escape routes must stay usable during a changeover, so door work at premises across the North East is planned around your Northumberland opening hours. Fire doors only work if they close fully, so we check gaps, seals and closers on each door we replace in Northumberland and across the North East.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Northumberland?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Northumberland, including Alnwick, Ashington, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Blyth.
How often should fire doors be checked?
Regularly, at intervals set by your fire risk assessment, with busy doors checked more often. Look for damaged seals, wide gaps, loose hinges and closers that no longer pull the door shut. Keep a written record, and have any damage put right by a competent person.
What is the difference between FD30 and FD60?
FD30 is tested to hold back fire for 30 minutes and FD60 for 60 minutes. An S suffix, as in FD30S, means the door also limits smoke. Your fire risk assessment or fire strategy sets the rating each door needs.
Can you fit a fire door into my existing frame?
Only if the test evidence allows it, and a full doorset is usually the safer route. Old frames may not be fire rated, and gaps or worn hinges can undo the rating. We check the opening and replace the frame, seals and hinges where needed.
