Common questions in Blackpool

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Blackpool?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Blackpool?

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