About Our Fire Door Services
Professional fire door services backed by over three decades of joinery and building experience. We specialise in fire door installation, maintenance, inspections, and ensuring full compliance with fire safety regulations across Yorkshire.
What I Can Do For You
Fire Door Installation
I've fitted thousands of fire doors over the years, so I know how to do it properly. I ensure proper fitting, compliance, and long-term performance—no shortcuts, everything done to standard.
Fire Door Inspections
As a FireQual certified inspector, I'll check everything properly and identify compliance issues. I provide detailed reports and recommendations—no jargon, just clear advice on what needs doing.
Fire Door Maintenance
I'll keep your fire doors in optimal condition with regular maintenance. I check everything properly—closers, seals, gaps—to ensure doors continue to function correctly and maintain their fire resistance rating.
Why Choose Our Fire Door Services

About Robert Coulson
Robert Coulson
Joiner & Fire Door Specialist
Since 1989
FireQual Certified - Dec 2024
Clerk of Works - In Progress
1989 - The Beginning
Started my journey in joinery and building, developing exceptional craftsmanship skills and attention to detail that would become the foundation of everything I do.
1990s - Building Excellence
I established Coulsy Ltd and worked on high-end residential and commercial projects, perfecting traditional joinery techniques and modern construction methods. This is where I learned to do things properly, not cut corners.
2000s - Fire Door Experience
I fitted thousands of fire doors over the years as part of general joinery work, gaining extensive hands-on experience with fire safety requirements. I learned what works and what doesn't through real-world experience.
December 2024 - FireQual Certification
After seeing appalling workmanship in the fire door industry—doors fitted wrong, seals missing, gaps too big—I decided to specialise properly. I passed all the FireQual exams because I wanted to be the person who does it right. Now when I inspect a door, I'm checking everything properly, not rushing through like some do.
2025 - Clerk of Works Qualification
I'm currently taking exams to become a qualified Clerk of Works, which will further enhance my ability to ensure quality standards and compliance across construction projects. I believe in continuous learning and staying up to date with best practices.
