Fire Door Inspections in Powys
We provide fire door inspections across Powys, with the same report format and pricing as everywhere else we work.
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.
