Specialist certification
BM TRADA certified fire doors
We hold BM TRADA Q-Mark certification for fire door installation. Our operatives are independently assessed, trained and certificated, giving developers, contractors, building control and residents confidence in every door set we fit.
With fire door requirements tightening across the residential sector under the Building Safety Act, a certified installer is increasingly a contractual requirement for housebuilders and main contractors, particularly on apartment and higher-risk buildings.
Third-party assessedIndependently audited installation standards, not self-certified.
Building Safety ActInstallation records that support your compliance and golden-thread obligations.
Full documentationInstallation records and certification for every fire door we fit.
