Fire Door Inspections in Brighouse

From the HD6 district outwards, we cover Brighouse and neighbouring towns such as Halifax and Cleckheaton for 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.

Brighouse FAQs

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Brighouse?

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

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

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