J Fire Safety can come to your home and work place and check to see if your doors are Fire Resistant and suitable for the building they serve. Incorrect doors are usually found by a Fire Risk Assessment or an onsite check.

We specialise in flat entrance doors and offer multiple services in residential blocks, for residents, landlords, block management companies and block directors, we can offer discounts depending on the amount of doors that need replacing.

Doors can range from being painted white, to an Oak/ Maple/ Beach veneer finish. 

Fire Doors and frames can be installed to offer 30 minutes or 60 minutes fire resistance, it is also very important that doors have the correct frame and fitment to the wall to achieved this. The correct hinges, locks, seals and closers must also be compliant with regulations.

J Fire Safety are proud members of BM Trada, the leading third party certification and training scheme. BM Trada is the only scheme recognised and accepted for work on government buildings and council owned freeholds as well as domestic premises.

Fire Door Services
BM TRADA is a UKAS accredited certification body which provides independent third party certification fire services for manufacturing, installation and maintenance service for fire doors and a fire stopping installation certification scheme.

The schemes aim to raise the on-going standard of manufacture, installation and maintenance throughout the lifetime of fire doors ensuring the product’s fire resistance capabilities are maintained. 
There is a legal requirement for manufacturers of fire doors to demonstrate the ability of their products to resist the passage and spread of fire. However, if they are not properly installed, their fire resistance capabilities can be seriously compromised. The BM TRADA Q-Mark Fire Door Installation scheme has been designed to provide reassurance to specifiers, contractors and end users that the product they have chosen has been installed correctly and that it should perform as intended.

FAQs: Fire Door Installation in East & West Sussex

1) What do you check during a fire door survey?
We inspect the door leaf, frame, gaps, hinges, locks/latches, closers, signage, intumescent/brush seals, glazing and air transfer grilles (if any), plus overall condition and fitment to the wall.

2) What fire resistance ratings do you install?
We install FD30 (30 minutes) and FD60 (60 minutes) door sets. Achieving these ratings depends on the complete assembly—door, frame, ironmongery, seals and correct installation.

3) Do you work on flat entrance doors?
Yes—this is a key specialism. We replace and certify flat entrance doors in residential blocks for residents, landlords, block management companies and directors, with discounts for multiple doors.

4) How do I know if my existing doors are compliant?
Non-compliance is often identified in a Fire Risk Assessment or via an on-site check. If you’re unsure, we can survey and advise whether repair, upgrade or replacement is required.

5) What finishes are available?
From painted white to veneers such as Oak/Maple/Beech—plus a choice of approved vision panels, hardware and letterplates. We’ll confirm options that maintain certification.

6) What standards and regulations do you work to?
We adhere to relevant British Standards for fire doors and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order requirements for competence and maintenance. Our installations align with best practice for design, supply, installation and maintenance.

7) Why is correct installation so important?
Even a certified door can fail prematurely if fitted incorrectly. Correct frame, fixings, gaps, seals, hinges, locks and closers are essential to achieve the rated performance.

8) Are you third-party certified?
Yes. We’re proud members of BM TRADA, a UKAS-accredited third-party certification body. Their Q-Mark schemes independently assess manufacture, installation and maintenance competency.

On completion you’ll receive installation/commissioning records and relevant certification details to evidence compliance for audits, insurers and building control.
