Fire Door Closer Repairs in Prescot

Prescot landlords, managing agents and facilities teams can book fire door closer repairs with straightforward reports and fixed 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 Prescot.

Questions from Prescot 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.

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.

Do you cover the area around Prescot?

Yes. As well as Prescot itself we cover nearby towns including Huyton, St Helens and Halewood.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Prescot?

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