Canvey Island FAQs

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

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

How often should they be tested?

With the weekly fire alarm test, and checked in detail at each fire door inspection.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Canvey Island?

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