Could you please help me as I'm stuck. We've just undertaken a loft conversion necessitating fire doors. Our local council is the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames.
I spoke to a door manufacturer today following an enquiry on their 4 panel door range. The advice I received was: The max trim off our doors is:
10mm off each rail and also the bottom of the door.
3mm off the top.
Most fire door (FD30) sizes come as either: 1981 x 762 x 44mm / 1981 x 610 x 44mm / 1981 x 813 x 44mm.
The fire door sizes we need are as follows:
Top floor: x3 single doors:
1.194cm x 75cm x 3.5cm
2.194cm x 73cm x 3.5cm
3.193cm x 74cm x 3.5cm
First floor:
1.x1 single door: 195cm x 74cm x 3.5cm
2.x2 double doors: 194cm x 58cm x 3.5cm
Ground floor:
1. x1 single glazed door: 196cm x 76.5cm x 4.5cm (dinning)
2.x2 double glazed doors: 193cm x 58cm x 4.5cm (living)
Please can you advise what I should go for. How much I can trim if I buy slightly over-sized doors. I want to avoid BESPOKE doors as expensive and have long lead times as I need doors installed within 2/3 weeks max.
