Fire Door Hold-Open Devices in Sunbury-on-Thames: questions

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Sunbury-on-Thames?

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

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.

Can you price remedial work in Sunbury-on-Thames from another company's report?

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

Is it legal to wedge a fire door open?

Wedging a fire door open defeats it, because it cannot close in a fire, and it can breach fire safety law. If a door needs to stay open, use a device that releases it automatically when the alarm activates.
