Fire Door Hinges & Ironmongery in Shirley: questions

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.

Do you cover the area around Shirley?

Yes. As well as Shirley itself we cover nearby towns including Solihull, Acocks Green and Birmingham.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Shirley?

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

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.
