We provide fire door inspections across County Antrim, including Belfast, Lisburn and Newtownabbey, with the same report format and pricing wherever your buildings are.
Fire Door Inspections: 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.

Fire Door Inspections in County Antrim: questions
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.
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.
Which fire safety law applies in County Antrim?
The Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010 require fire safety measures, including fire doors, to be maintained.
Do you work in occupied buildings in County Antrim?
