Fire Door Surveys

Fire doors are critical components in a building's passive fire protection. They protect escape routes, maintain compartmentation, and provide the time necessary for safe evacuation and effective firefighting. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 introduced specific duties for responsible persons in residential buildings to carry out checks on fire doors in communal areas — and to provide information to residents about flat entrance doors.

• Door leaf condition, integrity, and certification evidence
• Frame condition and fire resistance
• Intumescent strips and cold smoke seals — presence, condition, correct specification
• Ironmongery — self-closing devices, hinges, latches, locks
• Glazing — fire-rated, correctly beaded, undamaged
• Gap tolerances — leaf to frame, threshold gaps
• Signage — fire door keep shut / fire door keep locked shut

An individual condition assessment for each fire door surveyed, compiled into a portfolio-level report with summary statistics, prioritised remediation schedule, and estimated replacement/repair recommendations. Structured to support procurement and planned maintenance programmes.
