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.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Saint Neots?

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