Door Installation in Brixton

Front doors, internal doors, bi-folds and fire-rated flat entrance doors fitted across Brixton.

We fit doors for homeowners and landlords across Brixton, in SW2 and SW9. Alongside internal and garden doors, a lot of our door work here is in converted houses and mansion blocks, where the door from your flat onto a shared hallway has to be fire-rated. We supply the right door, fit it properly in older frames and finish it so it closes cleanly.

WHAT WE DO

Door fitting in Brixton

In a Victorian house, door openings move over time, so a new door rarely drops straight in. We adjust or replace the linings so it hangs true, closes cleanly and seals against draughts.

Flat entrance doors are a different job. In a converted house or block, the door between your flat and the shared stairs is part of the building’s fire protection and normally needs to be a fire door with a self-closer and the right seals. We fit certified fire doorsets and pass the product details to you and your freeholder.

Doors for Brixton's flats and period houses

Many of Brixton’s large Victorian houses were split into flats, and the town centre has red-brick mansion blocks from around 1900. In both, each flat’s front door opens onto a shared stairwell, which makes it a fire door. Older replacements often fall short, and freeholders increasingly ask for proof. We supply and fit compliant doors, with the closer, intumescent strips and smoke seals fitted correctly.

On houses in Brixton’s conservation areas, the front door is part of the street’s character. A like-for-like timber replacement is usually straightforward. Flats, or buildings covered by an Article 4 direction, can need permission for a change of style, so we check before ordering.

GOOD TO KNOW

Door questions from Brixton homeowners

Does my flat front door need to be a fire door?

If it opens onto a shared hallway or stairs, almost certainly. In converted houses and blocks it is part of the escape route. Check your lease too, as many set the standard required.

Can you replace a period front door on a Brixton house?

Yes. We can fit a timber door in a period style with modern locks. In a conservation area a like-for-like replacement is usually simple, and we check first if you want a different style.

Can you fix doors that stick or won’t close?

Yes. We ease, rehang or reline doors in older houses so they close properly.

Do you fit bi-fold doors?

Yes, on new extensions and into existing openings, with a new lintel or steel above where the opening is widened.

Do you supply the doors?

Yes, or we fit doors you have already bought, as long as any fire door comes as a certified doorset.
