Fire Door Inspections in Gerrards Cross

Responsible persons in Gerrards Cross can book fire door inspections with clear reports, useful photos and itemised prices.

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. We use the same method for buildings in Gerrards Cross.

Common questions in Gerrards Cross

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Gerrards Cross?

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

Can you price remedial work in Gerrards Cross from another company's report?

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

Will the inspection tell me whether a door is a genuine fire door?

It records the evidence available: labels, plugs, glazing marks, hardware markings and construction. Where there is no evidence of a fire rating, the report says so, so the fire risk assessor can decide what to do.

What happens if a door fails?

The report lists exactly which components failed and why. Each item is priced separately, so you can approve the urgent fixes first and plan the rest.
