Common questions in Hatfield

Can fire doors be held open?

Only with a device designed to release the door automatically when the fire alarm sounds, such as an acoustic or alarm-linked electromagnetic hold-open. Wedges and hooks are not acceptable on fire doors.

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

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Hatfield?

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

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.
