Fire Door Closer Repairs in Chichester: questions

Can you price remedial work in Chichester from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Chichester, 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.

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Chichester?

Chichester is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.
