Fire door repairs in Great Missenden
Village buildings with doors that do more than one job.
Get a priceGreat Missenden has the Roald Dahl Museum and Story Centre on its high street. A small village centre like this packs shops, flats and visitor buildings tightly together.
That puts fire doors in odd places. The door at the foot of a flat's stair, a few feet from a shop counter. The door from a hall into its kitchen. They are fire doors on paper, but they get shoved and propped all day.
Where we start
At the stair door between a shop and the flat above, since it takes the most knocks. Then the flat door at the top. Then any door into a plant room or store.
We test the closer, hinges, seal and gap on each. Whatever fails is mended and photographed.
Wedged doors
Walk through any village hall and you will find a door held open with a chair or a crate. Once it is wedged, the closer is doing nothing.
We cannot stop people. What we can do is fit a closer with a hold open device that lets go when the alarm sounds. Your assessor says which doors may have one.
Price
Fixed per door. A typical repair is between £150 and £900 plus VAT.
There are only a few doors in most village buildings, so we group neighbours into one trip from Luton. We have no office in Great Missenden.
