Goldcrest Fire Doors was created to give building owners, duty holders and managing agents clear, unbiased information about the true condition of their fire doors – without jargon or hidden agendas.
We specialise exclusively in fire door inspections and related reporting, working across London, the South East and the wider London & the South East. By focusing on one discipline, we maintain a high level of technical understanding and consistency in how we approach each survey.
Our inspectors are experienced in a wide range of building types, from small commercial spaces through to complex multi-occupancy residential buildings and healthcare estates. We understand how fire doors interact with access control, security and everyday building use.
Every fire door inspection follows a structured checklist, backed up with notes and photographs. Our reports are designed to be read and understood by both technical and non-technical audiences, supporting clear decision-making and transparent communication with residents and stakeholders.
Our work is focused on fire door inspections and reporting. This means the same people who visit your buildings also shape how our reports are structured and how we explain findings to duty holders, residents and wider stakeholders.
We are used to working in occupied buildings and sensitive environments, coordinating with managing agents, estates teams and care providers to keep disruption to a minimum.
Fire safety guidance and good practice continues to evolve. We review updates from government, regulators and industry bodies and reflect them in our inspection approach and internal checklists.
Where appropriate, we also review manufacturer information for specific door sets and components, so that our recommendations are grounded in how products are designed to perform.
Independent inspections provide a realistic picture of your fire door condition, separate from any remedial work. This helps accountable persons, duty holders and senior leadership teams understand where risk sits and what needs to happen next.
For higher-risk buildings, reliable fire door data can play an important role in building safety cases and wider risk assessments. Our reports are structured to support audit trails and future reviews.
Well-presented findings help avoid over-reliance on full doorset replacement where a repair could be appropriate, while also making clear where replacement is the most sensible option.
