An HMO fire door is a certified door set, usually rated FD30S, that holds back fire and smoke for about 30 minutes when closed. For a house in Coleraine we start with a measured survey, check the NI HMO standards and licence conditions for the number of sharers, and then price each item separately. Coleraine has a university population, so many shared houses are let to students on yearly tenancies, and summer is the main window for works.
