Questions from Fareham clients

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 Fareham?

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

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 Fareham?

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