Rotherham FAQs

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.

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.

Do you cover the area around Rotherham?

Yes. As well as Rotherham itself we cover nearby towns including Burngreave, Chapeltown and Sheffield.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Rotherham?

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