Fire Door Inspections in County Londonderry
Across County Londonderry, from Londonderry County Borough to smaller towns and villages, we carry out fire door inspections for landlords, housing providers, schools and businesses.
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.
