Need Help?

Hello we have 4 doors in our home that are a little wide to buy off the shelf as fire doors and after we discovered our county council wants us to change every door in our home into a fire resistant door (30min) now we have a room in our attic your paint seems the best solution. These are 4 panel Victorian type doors and all match your (and the council’s) spec to upgrade being thick and each panel solid and thick enough too: we have 2 stripped ready to paint, 2 needs stripping yet: but I am wondering the best way to ensure this is the right course of action and will we have your and Gateshead council’s approval : our contact there suggested we could use fire retardant paint but we don’t have that in writing: which I think we need to purchase the paint? Can you please advise us on our next best step? Do you have something we need the council to sign to agree? Many thanks Rebecca
