Common questions in Great Sankey

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Great Sankey?

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

Do you cover the area around Great Sankey?

Yes. As well as Great Sankey itself we cover nearby towns including Warrington, Newton-le-Willows and Widnes.

How many hinges does a fire door need?

Most single-leaf fire doors use three hinges; taller or heavier leaves may need four. The door's test evidence specifies the number and type.

Are cat flaps allowed in fire doors?

Not unless the flap is part of the door's tested design. A cat flap cut into a fire door, including many flat entrance doors, will normally make it non-compliant.
