About Us
Gerda is a leading British doorset manufacturer with 25 years' experience specialising in the social housing sector
Gerda’s range of fire doorsets and other associated products help building owners meet their obligations in respect of fire and building security regulations, giving them peace of mind that in the event of a fire or other building security incident, their building(s) and their occupants are protected by the very best equipment.
We can make that claim with confidence too, as our doorsets have won a number of accreditations for safety and their performance in tests by bodies such as BM Trada and UKAS. Likewise our company is a member of a number of trade associations. For more information about Gerda Security’s memberships and the third parties that test our products, please get in touch.
