Questions from Liverpool clients

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.

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.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Liverpool?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Liverpool?

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