Fire Door Inspections in Chalfont Saint Peter

From the SL9 district outwards, we cover Chalfont Saint Peter and neighbouring towns such as Gerrards Cross and Rickmansworth for fire door inspections.

In short: a fire door inspection is a documented, door-by-door check that each fire door in a building will still hold back fire and smoke for its rated period. The inspector examines the leaf, frame, gaps, seals, hinges, closer, glazing, ironmongery and signage, records what passes and what fails, and photographs every defect.

Typically 10 to 20 minutes per door, depending on access and how many defects need photographing. A block with 40 communal doors is usually a single day on site.
