Fire Door Inspections in Arnold

From the NG5 district outwards, we cover Arnold and neighbouring towns such as Nottingham and Hucknall for 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. We use the same method for buildings in Arnold.

Fire Door Inspections in Arnold: questions

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Arnold?

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

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

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

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.

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.
