Bracknell FAQs

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Bracknell?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Bracknell is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

My door slams. Is that a fault?

Yes. A slamming door wears hinges and frames and can injure users. The closing speed and latching action can usually be adjusted.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Bracknell?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

Can fire doors be held open?

Only with a device designed to release the door automatically when the fire alarm sounds, such as an acoustic or alarm-linked electromagnetic hold-open. Wedges and hooks are not acceptable on fire doors.
