Fire Door Gap Adjustment in Saint Neots: questions
Which fire safety law applies in Saint Neots?
Saint Neots 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.
How big can the gap under a fire door be?
It depends on the door's evidence. Doors without smoke control often allow a larger threshold gap, sometimes up to around 8 to 10 mm, while smoke control doors usually need 3 mm or less or a tested drop seal.
Why do gaps open up over time?
Hinges wear and drop, frames shrink or move, leaves warp, and doors are sometimes planed after flooring changes. Each needs a different repair.
Can you price remedial work in Saint Neots from another company's report?
Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Saint Neots, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.
