Protect Lives and Property: The Importance of Fire Door Installation and Maintenance🚪🔥 Fire doors are one of the most crucial safety measures in any building. Designed to contain fire and smoke, they provide precious time for evacuation and help protect property and lives. But their effectiveness depends on correct installation and ongoing maintenance. At CDS, we specialise in: ✅ Fire Door Installation: Expertly fitted to meet all regulatory standards. ✅ Fire Door Maintenance: Regular checks and repairs to ensure maximum performance. Our team understands that every building is unique, and so are its fire safety requirements. From schools and offices to student accommodations, we provide tailored solutions that you can trust. As part of the Obsequio Group, we work closely with Metro Safety Group Safety, who also offer comprehensive fire door inspection, maintenance, and compliance services. Together, we provide a seamless approach to fire door safety - ensuring that buildings remain protected, compliant, and ready to perform in the event of a fire. Poorly fitted or damaged fire doors can dramatically reduce their ability to contain fire. Regular inspections are not just a legal requirement - they’re a lifesaver.
