Horsham FAQs

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.

Do you cover the area around Horsham?

Yes. As well as Horsham itself we cover nearby towns including Crawley, Horley and Haywards Heath.

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 Horsham?

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