Fire Door Solutions in Cardiff

Highland Services installs a range of fire doors for buildings across Cardiff and South Wales, including internal fire doors, external fire doors, FD30 doors and FD60 doors.

We can help you choose the right option for your building layout, escape routes, fire strategy and day-to-day use.

Internal Fire Doors

Internal fire doors help separate areas within a building and slow the spread of smoke and fire. They are commonly used in offices, residential buildings, schools, healthcare settings and shared commercial spaces.

External Fire Doors

External fire doors are often used for fire exits and escape routes. They need to be secure, durable and suitable for regular use, while still supporting safe evacuation in an emergency.

FD30 and FD60 Fire Doors

FD30 fire doors are designed to provide 30 minutes of fire resistance, while FD60 fire doors are designed to provide 60 minutes of protection when correctly specified, fitted and maintained.

Our team can advise on the most suitable rating for your premises and install the doors in line with the requirements of your building.

Fire Door Replacement and Bespoke Requirements

Every building is different, so we can assess your existing doors, discuss your requirements and recommend a suitable solution. This may include replacing non-compliant doors, upgrading fire-rated doors, or installing new doors as part of wider fire safety improvements.

Our Fire Door Installation Process

Correct installation is essential for fire doors to perform as intended. At Highland Services, we follow a clear process to help ensure each door is suitable for the building, fitted correctly and checked after installation.

1. Consultation and Site Survey

We start by discussing your requirements and carrying out a site survey. This helps us understand your building layout, existing doors, escape routes and any specific fire safety considerations.

2. Fire Door Recommendations

Based on the survey, we can recommend suitable fire door options for your premises. This may include internal fire doors, external fire doors, FD30 doors, FD60 doors, replacement doors or additional hardware.

3. Door Selection

We help you choose fire doors that meet the practical needs of your building, including suitable ratings, finishes, glazing options and ironmongery where required.

4. Professional Installation

Our team installs each fire door with attention to the frame, hinges, seals, gaps, closers and operating hardware. These details are important to the overall performance of the door.

5. Final Checks

Once installed, we check that the doors open and close correctly, seals are in place, and the installation has been completed as expected.

6. Handover Information

Where required, we can provide relevant installation details, product information and supporting documentation for your records.

Why Correct Installation Matters

A fire door is only effective if it is correctly specified, installed and maintained. Poor fitting, damaged seals, incorrect gaps or unsuitable hardware can all affect performance.

Working with an experienced contractor helps ensure your fire doors are installed with care and form part of a wider fire safety approach for your building.

‍Fire Door Inspection Services in Cardiff

Fire doors should be checked regularly to make sure they remain in good working condition. Over time, damage, wear, poor adjustment or missing components can affect how a fire door performs.

Highland Services can inspect existing fire doors across Cardiff and South Wales, helping you identify issues that may need repair, adjustment or replacement.

What We Check

As part of a fire door inspection, we can review key components such as:

• door leaf condition
• frame condition
• hinges and ironmongery
• intumescent and smoke seals
• door closers
• signage
• glazing panels
• gaps around the door
• whether the door opens and closes correctly

Why Regular Fire Door Checks Matter

A fire door is a safety-critical part of a building’s passive fire protection. If it is damaged, poorly fitted or unable to close properly, it may not provide the expected level of protection.

Regular inspections can help building owners, landlords, facilities managers and responsible persons keep on top of maintenance requirements and make informed decisions about repairs or replacement.
