Fire Door Closer Repairs in Northwich

Northwich landlords, managing agents and facilities teams can book fire door closer repairs with straightforward reports and fixed prices.

In short: a fire door closer is the self-closing device that pulls a fire door shut after it has been opened. If the closer cannot close the door fully into its frame and engage the latch, the door cannot hold back fire or smoke.

Common questions in Northwich

What closer does a fire door need?

A closer tested to BS EN 1154 with a power size suited to the door's width and weight, and evidence it can be used on the door type. Concealed closers need specific test evidence for the door.

Can you price remedial work in Northwich from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Northwich, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

Why won't my fire door close properly?

Common causes are a closer set too weak, a latch out of line with the keep, dropped hinges, a seal binding at the edge, or flooring that has raised the threshold. We find the cause before adjusting the closer.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Northwich?

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