Common questions in Caerphilly

Do you work in occupied buildings in Caerphilly?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Caerphilly can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Caerphilly?

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, and the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed flat entrance doors in multi-occupied residential buildings are within scope.

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.
