Fire-door remedials

Turn identified door defects into a clearly scoped repair programme.

When this work is needed

An inspection has identified a schedule of door defects, but the findings still need to become a defined package of repairs. Different doors may need different actions, access arrangements and product information.

Typical projects

  • Communal doors across a managed block
  • A phased programme across housing or care properties
  • Repeat defects identified during an inspection programme

What contractors need

  • The inspection date, door references and defects recorded against each door.
  • Approximate door numbers, buildings and locations, separating confirmed quantities from estimates.
  • Occupation, access windows, resident liaison and any programme priorities already set by your assessor.
  • Available doorset/product records, the procurement stage and who will approve the scope.

Unknown quantities and budgets can be clarified later. Tell us what is confirmed and what still needs investigation.

Who this service is for

Managing agents, housing providers and estates teams turning door-inspection findings into a repair programme across occupied blocks, care settings, hotels or commercial buildings.

Documents you can send

  • Fire-door inspection report or relevant PDF extracts
  • Photographs labelled with door/location references
  • Existing doorset information and PDF door schedules or plans

Up to 3 PDF, JPG/JPEG or PNG files, each up to 10 MB (10,000,000 bytes). Export spreadsheets or drawings to PDF. Remove unnecessary resident details and share only documents you are authorised to provide.

After you submit your report

We review the door schedule and your procurement needs, identify missing information and consider contractors with the relevant approved scope and current evidence. A contractor may need a site visit before confirming repair suitability or price.

Availability is checked for each project. If a suitable introduction is not available, we will explain that.

  1. 01

    Review your enquiry

    We organise the enquiry and clarify missing procurement information.

  2. 02

    Consider an introduction

    Scope, coverage and evidence are reviewed, with contractor interest and your agreement recorded.

  3. 03

    Agree the work directly

    You discuss assessment, quotation, programme and appointment directly with the contractor.

A defined scope

Relevant work packages

One enquiry can cover several requirements. Keep the scope, price and responsibility for each package clear.

Before appointing a specialist

Share the original door references and findings. A specialist should establish which repairs are appropriate, what product information is available and where replacement or further investigation is needed. Ask for an itemised scope and completion records tied to the door schedule.

PFL arranges introductions. Technical assessment, design, delivery and certification remain with the appropriate professionals; an introduction does not certify the building.

Practical questions

Before you send your enquiry

Do I need to decide which doors can be repaired?

No. Send the findings and available records. The appropriate specialist should explain which options are supported; PFL does not decide technical repair suitability.

Can I submit a report covering several buildings?

Yes. Identify the buildings and any proposed phases. Keep door references connected to the correct property so scope and quotations can be compared.

What should be agreed before work starts?

Ask for an itemised scope, access arrangements, exclusions and the completion records against each door. Agree how newly identified work will be reviewed and authorised.

A report, a question or an outline scope.

You can start with any of these. Choose the route that suits your project.
