Common questions in Kendal

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Kendal?

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

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

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

Can I add a vision panel to an existing fire door?

Only if the door's evidence allows a panel of that size and position, and it is fitted with a matched glazing system.

How can I tell if fire door glass is fire-rated?

Fire-rated glass is usually etched or labelled with the product name and standard in a corner. Wired glass may be fire-rated but not all is. If there is no mark, the inspection records the glass as unverified.
