Common questions in Wickford

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Wickford?

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

Can I fit any lock to a fire door?

No. The lock must be suitable for fire doors and fitted within the size limits of the door's evidence, often with intumescent protection around the mortice.

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

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