Why a certified fire door installer should fit your fire doors
Fire-rated door sets only perform to their certified standard when they’re installed correctly.
A gap between the door and its frame. Improper seal installation. Poor door alignment. Mistakes like these put people and property at risk — and leave your business non-compliant with fire safety rules.
But choose a certified fire door installation service and you can rest easy. You know your doors will perform exactly as they did when tested, providing a robust defence against fire and smoke, and keeping your building safe and compliant.

Fire door installation: frequently asked questions
Got a question about our fire door installation service? You may find your answer here. If not, ask our team.
1
How long does fire door installation take?
Installing a fire door usually takes around 4 to 6 hours. For more complex projects like bespoke doors, integration with fire alarm systems and automated fire door systems, the process takes days rather than hours.
2
Can anyone fit a fire door?
No. Fitting a fire door is different from fitting a standard door. To ensure compliance with fire safety regulations — and to keep your people and property safe — you need to use a certified fire door installer.
3
How much disruption should I expect during fire door installation?
Fire door installation inevitably creates some noise and dust. But the Fire Door Systems team works hard to minimise disruption.
We use dust sheets and other protective measures to keep your space clean, and always leave your site as we found it. Wherever possible, we schedule work around your operating hours, so business can continue as usual.
4
Do you provide fire door signage?
Yes. As part of our fire door fitting service, we provide all the fire safety signage you need to keep your building fully compliant.
5
Do you provide a commercial fire door installation service?
Yes, we do. Our team specialises in commercial fire door installation for offices, retail spaces, leisure facilities and more. Whether you need one door or many, we can help.
6
Do you provide a domestic fire door installation service?
Absolutely. Our certified fire door fitters also specialise in residential fire door installation projects. We fit fire doors in houses, apartments and multi-occupancy buildings to ensure fire safety.
7
What types of fire doors do you fit?
Our fire door installation team has expertise in a wide range of fire safety products. We can install fire-rated timber and steel doors, roller and shutter doors, security grilles and fencing.
We also provide a fire exit door installation service, fitting fire exit doors and panic hardware, and linking to your alarm system if required.
8
How much does fire door installation cost?
That all depends on the complexity of your fire door project. Installation costs for a single fire door in a standard-sized opening start from £1500. This includes the doorset and installation.
9
Can fire doors be fitted in existing frames?
No. Fire doors need specialist fire door frames to work correctly. At FDS, we provide all frames and fire door hardware as part of our door sets.
10
Do you provide fire door installation certification?
Yes, we do. Once installation is complete, we provide certification that confirms your fire door was fitted by a certified fire door installation company, according to regulatory standards.
