Fire Door Inspections in Shepherds Bush

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

In short: 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 Shepherds Bush: questions

Do you cover the area around Shepherds Bush?

Yes. As well as Shepherds Bush itself we cover nearby towns including Notting Hill, Chiswick and Fulham.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Shepherds Bush?

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

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.

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.
