Fire Door Install Lambeth: Professional Services by Artius Fire Protection Ltd
Expert Fire Door Installation Across South London
Are you looking to enhance the fire safety of your Lambeth property with properly installed fire doors? At Artius Fire Protection Ltd, we provide comprehensive fire door installation services that ensure your property not only meets all legal requirements but provides optimal protection for occupants and assets.
Why Fire Doors Are Essential for Your Property
Fire doors are a critical component of any building’s passive fire protection strategy. Unlike active measures such as sprinklers or alarms, fire doors work silently in the background, becoming crucial barriers when fire breaks out. Properly installed fire doors:
- Compartmentalise buildings to contain smoke and flames
- Protect vital escape routes for safe evacuation
- Significantly slow fire spread, giving emergency services more time to respond
- Reduce property damage and business interruption
- Help comply with fire safety regulations
- Can save lives in the critical minutes after a fire starts
Our professional installation service ensures these fire doors perform exactly as designed when needed.

Common Fire Door Questions Answered
How long do fire doors last?
With proper maintenance, fire doors can last many years. However, regular inspection is crucial to ensure continued performance. Our maintenance programmes help extend the lifespan of your investment.
Can existing doors be upgraded to fire doors?
In most cases, no. Fire doors are specially constructed with fire-resistant cores and materials. Converting standard doors rarely meets certification requirements. A proper replacement is usually necessary.
How can I tell if my current doors are fire doors?
Look for certification marks, labels on the door edge, and a thickness of at least 44mm. However, professional assessment is recommended as many non-compliant doors are incorrectly labelled.
Do fire doors have to be kept closed?
Yes, fire doors should be kept closed to function properly. If this causes operational issues, we can install approved hold-open devices that release automatically when the fire alarm activates.
