Fire Door Inspections in Haverhill

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

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 Haverhill.

Haverhill FAQs

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Haverhill?

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

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.

Do you cover the area around Haverhill?

Yes. As well as Haverhill itself we cover nearby towns including Newmarket, Sudbury and Braintree.
