Blocks of flats
In England, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 require the responsible person for blocks over 11 metres to check communal fire doors every three months and flat entrance doors every year. We carry out and record these checks for managing agents, alongside the fire alarm, emergency lighting and AOVs. More for property managers.
Businesses
Fire doors protect escape routes in offices, shops, care settings and HMOs. Your fire risk assessment will say how often they need checking, and we can inspect them on the same visit as your other systems.
Your report
Every door gets a pass or fail, with photos and the reason for any failure. Repairs and replacements are quoted separately, and nothing is done without your approval.
