Questions from Oxford clients

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

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Oxford?

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

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.
