Fire Door Closer Repairs in Weston-super-Mare: questions

Can you price remedial work in Weston-super-Mare from another company's report?

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

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Weston-super-Mare?

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