Fire Doors in Surrey - Installation & Inspection

Fire doors are a legal requirement in the UK for any building with communal areas. If you own or manage a property, you are legally obligated to ensure all escape routes are protected by fully compliant, fully operational fire doors.

At Summit Environmental, we specialise in inspections and compliance services for fire doors across Surrey, helping property owners meet their obligations while safeguarding lives and property.

Why Fire Doors Matter

A well-installed and maintained fire door is your first line of defence during a fire. Modern fire doors are specially designed to:

Automatically close behind you
Contain flames and block toxic smoke
Protect escape routes, corridors and flats
Resist fire for a minimum of 30 minutes (FD30 rated)

Without proper installation and routine inspection, even a certified fire door can fail in an emergency. That’s why regular inspections are crucial for any building’s fire safety plan. Get in touch today to book an inspection or assessment for your fire doors in Surrey and ensure your doors meet all current legal requirements.

Fire Door Inspections

Our fire door inspection service ensures that every fire door is functioning as intended. We check for:

Proper sealing and alignment
Working self-closing mechanisms
Damage or wear that could impact performance
Certification and regulatory compliance

With over 75% of fire-related deaths caused by smoke inhalation (often in rooms where the fire didn’t start) a functioning fire door can literally mean the difference between life and death.

Stay Safe. Stay Compliant.

Don’t leave fire safety to chance. Whether you need a routine check or a full compliance review, we’re here to help you protect your people, your property and your peace of mind.

How Long Can Fire Doors Protect You?

Fire doors play a crucial role in slowing the spread of fire and smoke but their effectiveness depends on how they are fire rated. Here are the most common fire door ratings:

FD30 – Provides 30 minutes of fire resistance (most commonly used in residential and commercial properties)
FD60 – Offers 60 minutes of protection
FD90 & FD120 – Typically used in high-risk or high-value buildings such as hospitals, data centres, or infrastructure hubs

In addition, many fire doors are fitted with smoke seals, giving them an FDS rating (e.g. FDS30, FDS60). These doors feature a certified fire-resistant core as well as intumescent strips that expand when exposed to heat, sealing gaps to block flames and toxic smoke.
