Fire doors: the difference is in the fit.

Our most recent job: new fire doors throughout a school in Knowsley, close to home for us. Classroom doors with vision panels, closers and kick plates, and plain doors along the corridors, all hung while keeping the building safe to use.

Read the case study
  1. The gap around the frame
  2. The intumescent seals
  3. The hinges
  4. The closer

A fire door only works if it is fitted right. The gap around the frame, the intumescent seals, the hinges and the closer all have to be correct, or the door cannot hold back smoke and fire the way it is meant to.

We fit fire doors to the manufacturer's specification, with the same care that goes into every other piece of joinery we do. We have done this work in both homes and commercial premises, from loft conversions and internal alterations to fire door installations in commercial buildings, each one finished to the standard you would expect from a joiner who takes pride in the work.

One yard, start to finish.

  • Darren and Reece ran a project on our landing: new oak handrails, newel posts, spindles and three oak veneer doors. A professional service from start to finish. Would use again.

    Chris B., Google review
  • I've used Darren from Marlborough Builders over the years. He always leaves the job with the highest quality finish, the pricing is very competitive, and he communicates well throughout.

    Carl M., Google review
  • Brilliant job carried out by Darren. He left the area spotless, and the cost was by far the most competitive of all the quotes I received.
