Fire Door Inspections in Wolverhampton

Looking for a fire door inspection in Wolverhampton? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Wolverhampton and surrounding parts of the West Midlands, 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.

Common questions in Wolverhampton

Do you cover the area around Wolverhampton?

Yes. As well as Wolverhampton itself we cover nearby towns including Wednesfield, Willenhall and Tipton.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Wolverhampton?

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

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.

What happens if a door fails?

The report lists exactly which components failed and why. Each item is priced separately, so you can approve the urgent fixes first and plan the rest.
