FireX regional services
Passive Fire Protection in London
FireX delivers fire door, fire-stopping, compartmentation and fire damper services across London. We work with managing agents, housing providers, facilities teams and contractors to turn survey findings and FRA actions into a defined programme with clear completion records.

Include the postcode, quantities and access requirements.
Regional capability
Coordinated works across occupied London buildings.
A residential block, hotel or civic refurbishment needs more than a list of defects. We review the available survey, asset references, drawings and supporting evidence so that fire doors, service penetrations and ventilation interfaces can be scoped together where required.
For a London enquiry, include resident or guest access arrangements, loading and parking restrictions, permitted working hours and any other trades sharing the work area. These details help us plan attendance and distinguish straightforward repairs from items needing investigation.

Frequently asked questions
Planning passive fire work in London.
Do you cover every London borough?+
FireX covers all London boroughs and the City of London from its Barking base. Share the postcode, scope and access requirements so we can confirm the practical programme for the property.
Can fire door and fire-stopping actions be managed together?+
Yes. Send the relevant reports and drawings together. We can review the separate work packages, identify dependencies and agree how door and penetration records will be returned. Unresolved design or fire-strategy questions need to be clarified before the affected work proceeds.
Can you plan work around an operating hotel or residential block?+
Yes. Tell us about resident appointments, guest areas, restricted hours, security and delivery arrangements. Our published Lanesborough and Booth House case studies show different approaches to managing work in occupied London buildings.
What should I send when requesting a quotation?+
Send the full survey or FRA actions, property address, approximate quantities, photographs and any drawings or product records. Include the required programme and access arrangements. We will identify information gaps before confirming the scope; any on-site survey requirements and charges are agreed before booking.
What certification and completion records does FireX provide?+
FireX holds BM TRADA Q-Mark scopes for Fire Door Installation (STD 052), Fire Door Maintenance (STD 058) and Fire Stopping Installation (STD 05B). Certification depends on the applicable scope and supporting evidence. Qualifying door repairs receive a maintenance certificate; nominal-door remedials receive a worksheet and photographs, which do not retrospectively certify fire resistance. Handover records and any outstanding items are agreed for the contract. These three schemes do not cover every service offered.
