Fire Door Inspections in Putney

Putney landlords, managing agents and facilities teams can book fire door inspections with straightforward reports and fixed prices.

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 Putney.

Fire Door Inspections in Putney: questions

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Putney?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Putney 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.

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

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

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.
