Fire Door Closer Repairs in Acton

Responsible persons in Acton can book fire door closer repairs with clear reports, useful photos and itemised prices.

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 Acton.

Questions from Acton clients

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.

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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Acton?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Acton can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Acton?

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