Our Certifications & Testing
At Kingsway Group, our products are put through extensive third party testing to ensure they are certificated and meet the stringent requirements demanded by challenging mental health environments.
Certification and testing of our products is conducted by third party experts to official standards in the relevant category to ensure our products are fit-for-purpose and the safest they can be.

At Kingsway Group, we are a certificated member of the BM Trada Q-Mark Third Party Fire Door Certification Scheme. With both the Building Regulations and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order requiring the person manufacturing and installing fire doors to be competent, our certification under the Q-Mark scheme gives building owners, specifiers, and the responsible persons confidence that the integrity of their fire compartment lines are being maintained, with documented evidence to demonstrate this.
To achieve Q-Mark certification, our Complete Door Systems are rigorously tested by third party experts to BS 476 Part 22 for fire resistance, whilst BM Trada also audit us both by inspection and testing of our products to ensure continued compliance with the required standards.
