Fire doors · Local Authorities

Fire door installation for Cornwall Council and parish/town councils.

Cornwall Council's housing, corporate estates and education portfolios all carry statutory fire-door duties — from council-owned housing stock to Grade II civic buildings and primary schools. Town and parish councils across Cornwall carry the same duties on community centres, village halls and public conveniences.

Regulatory context for local authorities

Local authorities operate as the 'responsible person' under the Fire Safety Order across their operational and residential estates, and (for maintained schools) alongside the Department for Education's Fire Safety Design for Schools guidance. Public-sector procurement rules require open competition on above-threshold works.

Our approach with local authorities

We tender through Contracts Finder, Find a Tender (FTS) and Cornwall Council's Delta e-Sourcing portal, hold all required accreditations, and deliver installations to public-sector documentation standards. Every doorset we install carries independent third-party certification (BM TRADA Q-Mark, Certifire or IFC) covering the exact tested slab, frame, seal, hardware and glazing combination. Installation follows the manufacturer's tested method and hands over with the manufacturer certificate, installation certificate and photo evidence for your compliance file.
