About us

Carpenters who come up the M1 from Luton.

Our yard and our vans are in Luton, not Milton Keynes. We have no office there. It is roughly 40 minutes up the M1.

The crew stays on site for the whole day once we arrive, which is why we prefer to book several doors at once.

Our view of a failed door

Most failed doors can be repaired. A door that failed on a weak closer and a painted seal does not need replacing.

Some cannot be saved. A door with panels in the leaf has lost its rating, and the advice is a plain certified doorset. When that is the answer we say so, because a repair would fail the next inspection.

Jobs behind this page

We repaired 140 of 147 fire doors across two Luton secondary schools and an almshouse.

We put right 34 doors in a block of flats in Luton, and fitted smoke seals in a block of flats in Stevenage.

We inspected 16 doors across homecare houses in Hemel Hempstead and Kings Langley, and surveyed 129 fire doors at a hotel in Reading.

Who does the work

Our own crew repairs the doors. Anything that has to go through a third-party scheme is passed to our BM TRADA / FIRAS-certificated contractors.

A fire risk assessment is a separate service. We repair doors, and we are happy to work from whatever your assessor has written.
