Fire Door Hinges & Ironmongery in Oxfordshire: questions

Do letter plates on flat doors need to be fire-rated?

Yes, where the flat entrance door is a fire door. Fire-rated letter plates include intumescent liners that close the opening in a fire.

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 Oxfordshire?

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