Macclesfield FAQs

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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Macclesfield?

My door slams. Is that a fault?

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Macclesfield?

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