Fire Door Closer Repairs in Musselburgh

We provide fire door closer repairs for buildings in Musselburgh and the EH21 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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. We use the same method for buildings in Musselburgh.

Questions from Musselburgh clients

Which fire safety law applies in Musselburgh?

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.

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

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

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.

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.
