Timber Fire Doors in Newmarket
We make and fit Timber Fire Doors throughout Newmarket — measured properly, built from timber chosen for the exposure, and adjusted once they are in.
Specifying a door for Newmarket
Newmarket is a relatively sheltered inland location, so the specification is driven more by how the door looks and how secure it is than by weather resistance.
Housing in and around Newmarket is largely 1920s–1930s semi-detached stock, which suits three-panel doors with a wide glazed head, often in a sunburst or geometric lead pattern. We match the mouldings and panel proportions to what is already on the street rather than fitting a generic pattern.

Common questions
What does FD30 actually mean?
The doorset resists fire for 30 minutes when tested as a complete assembly. The rating belongs to the doorset — leaf, frame, seals and ironmongery — not the leaf alone.
What door suits a 1930s semi?
A three-panel door with a wide glazed head, often leaded in a sunburst or geometric pattern. The glazed area is proportionally larger than on a Victorian door.
What about draughts around the frame?
Compression seals in the rebate handle the leaf; the gap between frame and structure is a separate job, insulated and sealed on fitting rather than filled with expanding foam alone.
Do you fit in winter?
Yes. Clearances are set for the season and the finish is already cured, so there is no waiting for weather to paint on site.
How do I get an indicative price quickly?
Use the guide-price tool, or send sizes and a photograph. Either gives a realistic range within a working day.
Do you survey before quoting?
We give an indicative price from sizes or photographs, then survey free of charge before anything is made. The survey is what turns an estimate into a fixed price.
