Fire Door Inspections in Reigate

Looking for a fire door inspection in Reigate? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Reigate and surrounding parts of Surrey, 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.

Fire doors in Reigate's buildings

Reigate has its share of converted buildings and older doors of unknown origin, where an inspection records what evidence exists. Where a Reigate building has had a recent fire risk assessment, send it over and we will price against its actions.

Common questions in Reigate

Which fire safety law applies in Reigate?

Reigate 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.

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

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

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.

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.
