Hi,
I'm planning on having my loft converted, have the planning permission and party wall agreements.
I want to know if there is any way round having all my doors replaced with fire doors. They are pretty much the only original features in my flat so I really don't want to get rid of them.
the loft conversion company have said I might be able to have wired in smoke alarms instead, but someone else told me they tried this and still eventually had to replace the doors.
Also I thought about just putting them back afterwards, but someone has told me that the whole door frame had to be replaced in their place. REALLY don't want this to happen- I have lovely wooden door frames too.
Is it inevitable or is there a way round it?
Thanks
