Fire Door Inspections in Wednesbury

Fire Door Inspections in Wednesbury, West Midlands: every door logged, photographed and graded, with a clear price for anything that needs putting right.

In short: 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.

Questions from Wednesbury clients

Which fire safety law applies in Wednesbury?

Wednesbury 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 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.

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 cover the area around Wednesbury?

Yes. As well as Wednesbury itself we cover nearby towns including Tipton, West Bromwich and Willenhall.
