Fire Doors

At Castle Fire Services Ltd, we provide professional fire door inspections, maintenance, and installation services throughout the West Midlands, including Dudley, Wolverhampton, Birmingham, and surrounding areas.

Fire doors are one of the most critical life-safety components in any building, designed to contain fire and smoke, protect escape routes, and save lives.
Our expert engineers ensure your fire doors are fully compliant with BS 8214:2020, BS 476-22, and the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, giving you confidence that your premises remain safe and legally protected.

Why Fire Doors Are So Important

When a fire breaks out, a properly fitted and maintained fire door can mean the difference between life and death.
Fire doors are engineered to withstand fire and smoke for up to 30 or 60 minutes (FD30 / FD60) — allowing vital time for safe evacuation and fire-fighting response.

If a fire door fails due to poor installation, damage, or incorrect maintenance, flames and toxic smoke can spread rapidly through corridors and stairwells, compromising escape routes.

That’s why regular fire door inspections and maintenance are not optional — they’re a legal requirement under:

  • The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRO)

  • The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, which require quarterly fire door checks in multi-occupied residential buildings over 11m tall

  • Building Regulations Approved Document B
