This is the latest in a series of achievements for FDM this year, which also won Training Provider of the Year at the 2025 Fire & Security Matters Awards and Training Company of the Year at the 2024 National Fenestration Awards. The company also recently hosted national industry roundtable to explore ongoing fire safety challenges, with the discussion informing its “Raising Standards in the Fire Door Industry” report; in the report’s foreword, Dame Judith Hackitt, who chaired the roundtable, endorsed FDM as “an exemplar of good practice”.
FDM was founded to meet the growing need for high-quality fire door training in the wake of the Grenfell tragedy, ensuring professionals across the sector have the skills and confidence to meet the evolving fire safety regulations. FDM has trained 1,200 professionals since opening in February 2024, forging partnerships with 60 leading industry bodies. It has also earned national recognition, winning Training Provider of the Year at the 2025 Fire & Security Matters Awards and Training Company of the Year at the 2024 National Fenestration Awards.
The London Construction Awards celebrate achievements, developments and innovation across the UK’s booming construction industry. The award win underlines FDM’s dedication to raising safety standards in the industry, focusing on providing holistic courses and qualifications that bridge knowledge gaps in fire door safety best practice.
