Questions from Tiverton clients

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Tiverton?

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

Do acoustic hold-open devices work with any alarm?

They listen for the alarm sounder, so the sounder must be loud enough at the door. We check the sound level and the alarm type before recommending one.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Tiverton?

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.

Can hold-open devices be used on flat entrance doors?

Generally not on flat entrance doors in residential blocks. They are mainly used on corridor and cross-corridor doors in other buildings, subject to the fire risk assessment.
