Fire Door Inspections in Mansfield

From the NG18 district outwards, we cover Mansfield and neighbouring towns such as Sutton in Ashfield and Kirkby in Ashfield 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 Mansfield.

Mansfield FAQs

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.

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Mansfield?

Mansfield is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Mansfield?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Mansfield can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
