Fire Door Closer Repairs in Dundee

Dundee 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.

Questions from Dundee clients

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

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Dundee, 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.

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Dundee?

In Scotland, fire safety duties for workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, with new work designed to the Scottish building standards.
