Fire Door Inspections in Battersea

Looking for a fire door inspection in Battersea? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Battersea and surrounding parts of Greater London, with a door-by-door report and every remedial item priced separately.

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 Battersea.

Battersea FAQs

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Battersea?

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

Do you need to remove the doors?

No. Inspections are non-intrusive. The inspector measures, operates and photographs each door in place and only lifts away removable items such as letter-plate covers where it is safe to do so.

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.

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

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