About us

Carpenters and fire door people who come over from Luton to do the work.

I'm Seb. I run this.

We have no premises in Reading. We work out of Luton, a bit over an hour up the road, and once the crew arrives it stays on site for the day.

I have worked in fire and security since 2010. Fire doors are the part of a building where a small repair makes the biggest difference, and most of the ones we see can be put right for a modest sum.

What we would rather do

Keep your door. A fire door that has failed on a worn closer and a painted seal doesn't need a skip.

When a door really is beyond saving, we say so. If it has panels in it, for example, the advice is a plain certified doorset.

Numbers I can stand behind

147 fire doors over two Luton secondary schools and an almshouse, and 140 of those were repaired without replacing them.

34 doors put right in a Luton block of flats.

A survey of 129 fire doors at a hotel right here in Reading, plus inspection of 16 doors across homecare houses in Hemel Hempstead and Kings Langley.

How the work gets done

Our own crew carries out the repairs. If you need work done under a third-party certificate scheme, it goes through our BM TRADA-certificated contractors.

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