Specialist fire door consultancy for your project team

Give your team the fire door expertise an instruction needs. FD Fire Door supports building consultancies, surveyors and project managers with technical advice that fits the wider brief and protects the lead consultant’s client relationship.
From acquisition reviews to specification, project assurance and occupied-estate programmes, we explain the findings, their implications and the next steps.

Support across the life of an instruction

Acquisition and Technical Due Diligence

Acquisition and Technical Due Diligence

Identify fire door condition issues, gaps in supporting information and matters requiring further investigation. Our Technical Due Diligence service supports transaction reporting, with scope, sampling and access limitations made clear.

Design, specification and procurement

Design, specification and procurement

Review door schedules, ironmongery and supporting evidence. Our consultancy and specification support helps resolve technical queries and develop clear remedial scopes for tendering.

Installation, handover and remedial work

Installation, handover and remedial work

Use Independent Verification & Validation to review installation and close-out evidence against agreed requirements. We identify outstanding issues and distinguish completed work from matters still needing verification.

Continuing estate advice

Continuing estate advice

Retain specialist support after the initial instruction, through condition surveys, technical reviews and planned improvement programmes. Our digital compliance-management environment brings asset records, findings and actions together.

A working relationship that respects yours

We can work as a named specialist, within an agreed integrated or white-label arrangement, or as a continuing consultancy partner. At the outset, we agree reporting format, client contact, confidentiality and responsibilities.

FD does not supply doors or undertake installation or remedial contracting. Our advice helps your team assess options and challenge proposed solutions without a financial interest in selling the resulting works.
NHS trusts and healthcare estates

Reporting your team can use

The output should answer the question you were appointed to address. Depending on the instruction, that may be a concise technical opinion, acquisition findings, specification comments or an action schedule.

We distinguish observed defects, missing information and unresolved technical questions, explaining how each affects the conclusion. You receive findings that can be incorporated into your wider advice, with an agreed route for resolving queries.

Questions about working together

Can you work within our reporting structure?

Yes. We agree the deliverables, terminology and reporting interfaces at appointment, including how specialist findings feed into your report and who communicates with the client.

Can you advise from documents alone?

A Desktop Assessment can address documentary questions, but it cannot establish every aspect of installed condition. We will explain when a site inspection or further investigation is needed.
