Door Hanging in Wetherby
Expert door hanging and fire door installation services by a City & Guilds qualified joiner. Precision fitting for internal, external, and fire-rated doors with safety compliance.
Meet Robert
I'm Robert, a City & Guilds qualified joiner offering professional door hanging and fire door installation services in Wetherby. With over 30 years' experience, I specialise in fitting internal and external doors to a high standard — including certified fire doors for homes, landlords, and commercial buildings.
From timber and composite to heavy-duty metal and steel fire exit doors, I make sure every install is safe, precise, and built to last. Whether you need a single door replacing or a full set fitted as part of a refurbishment or fire safety upgrade, I'll give you straightforward advice and a top-notch result.
Wetherby includes everything from modern new builds to older character properties. I adapt each install to suit the quirks and materials of the building — whether it's solid timber frames, out-of-square openings, or specialist fire-rated requirements.
If you're specifically looking for a steel fire escape door, check out our Steel Fire Exit Door Installer service.
Why Clients Choose Me
A lot of trades can fit a door — but not everyone does it to a proper standard. I don't rush, I don't bodge, and I don't leave you with gaps, draughts, or sticking doors. Everything gets checked and fitted with care.
I treat your home with respect: floors are protected, mess is kept to a minimum, and everything's left tidy. You'll always get a full walk-through of the work, and I make sure you're happy before I leave.
I also supply a signed handover form for your records — ideal if it's a rental property, commercial premises, or part of a larger fire strategy.

I show up on time and finish when I say I will. It's how I've built long-term trust with my clients.
Qualified
I hold City & Guilds and CSCS Gold card certification, so you know the job's done by someone trained and competent.

Common Fire Door Failures
Fire doors are crucial for building safety, but they must be installed and maintained correctly to be effective. Here are the most common fire door failures we encounter during inspections.
Incorrect Installation & Damage
Doors that aren't properly fitted or have sustained damage can compromise the entire fire safety system.
Incorrect Gap Tolerances
Gaps that are too large allow smoke and fire to pass through, while gaps that are too small prevent proper door operation.
Poor Rebate Engagement
When doors don't fully engage with the frame rebate, they can't provide the necessary fire resistance.
Faulty Door Closers
Door closers that don't function properly prevent doors from closing automatically, which is essential during a fire.
Incorrect Door Furniture
Hinges, handles, and other hardware must be fire-rated and properly specified for the door type.
Failed Fire Door Seals
Intumescent and smoke seals that are damaged or missing allow fire and smoke to bypass the door.
Incorrect Glazing Specification
Fire-rated glazing must be properly certified and installed to maintain the door's fire resistance rating.
Concerned About Your Fire Doors?
