Fire Door Closer Repairs in Wilmslow: questions

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.

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.

Do you cover the area around Wilmslow?

Yes. As well as Wilmslow itself we cover nearby towns including Cheadle Hulme, Hazel Grove and Altrincham.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Wilmslow?

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