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.

Fire Door Inspections in Chiswick: questions

How long does a fire door inspection take?

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.

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

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Chiswick, 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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Chiswick?

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