Fire and security doors in Nuneaton

Escape routes must stay usable during a changeover, so door work at premises across Warwickshire is planned around your Nuneaton opening hours.

Fire door with vision panel and panic bar

If your Nuneaton shop has flats above, the door between the two uses may need a fire rating, so check your fire risk assessment. Insurers may set conditions on locks and doors, so send us your policy wording before we specify a doorset for your Nuneaton unit.

At roughly 19 miles from Great Barr, Nuneaton is close to home for us. Survey visits are straightforward to arrange. We cover CV10, CV11 and the surrounding streets, along with Bedworth, Hinckley and Atherstone.

What can we fit in Nuneaton?

Fire-rated vision panelsFire-rated glass can be included if it is covered by the test evidence for that door.
Steel security doorsetsA steel leaf and frame with multi-point locking, tested to PAS 24 or LPS 1175 where the risk justifies it.
FD30 and FD30S doorsetsThese give 30 minutes of fire resistance. The S means smoke seals are fitted to limit the spread of cold smoke.

What does it cost in Nuneaton?

Fire and security doors usually cost £895 to £2,495 ex VAT per door set, supplied and fitted. The rating, leaf size, vision panels, and lock or panic hardware set the price, and steel security doorsets cost more than timber fire doors. Altering a frame, making good the wall or matching existing finishes adds labour. We price each door against its test evidence.

Landlords with mixed-use buildings in Warwickshire can ask us to go through the door schedule for a Nuneaton property and price the changes together. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Nuneaton job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Can you come out to Nuneaton for a survey?

Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Nuneaton. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.

Can I put a lock on a fire exit door?

You can, but it must open easily from the inside without a key while people are in the building. That is why panic bars to BS EN 1125 or emergency exit devices to BS EN 179 are used. Extra locks must never block escape during opening hours.

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.

Do I need planning permission for a new shopfront in Nuneaton?

Usually yes, if the new front changes how the building looks. Like-for-like repairs usually don't. Your local planning authority decides, and we can prepare the drawings. Signs and external shutters have their own rules.
