Fire Door Installation in Melton Mowbray: questions

Can you fit a fire door into the existing frame?

Sometimes, if the frame is sound, compatible with the new leaf and the leaf's evidence allows it. Often a complete doorset is cheaper over the door's life and easier to evidence.

What do FD30 and FD60 mean?

They describe how long the door is designed to resist fire in a test: 30 or 60 minutes. An S after the rating, such as FD30S, means the door also controls the passage of cold smoke.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Melton Mowbray?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Melton Mowbray can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Melton Mowbray?

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