Questions from Gillingham clients

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Gillingham?

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.

What if the door cannot be made safe?

We will advise on immediate measures and inform the responsible person so the fire risk assessor can decide on interim arrangements.

Is a temporary repair enough?

A make-safe gets the door closing and latching. It is recorded as temporary until a permanent repair or replacement restores the door's certified performance.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Gillingham?

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