Fire Door Closer Repairs in Rossendale

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Rossendale, our fire door closer repairs follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

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.

Rossendale FAQs

Do you work in occupied buildings in Rossendale?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Rossendale 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 Rossendale?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Rossendale 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.

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.
