Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Kendal

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Kendal, our fire door maintenance contracts follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

In short: a fire door maintenance contract is a planned arrangement where your fire doors are inspected on a fixed cycle and minor faults are corrected on the same visit, at agreed rates, so the doors stay compliant between full inspections rather than being fixed only when they fail.

Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Kendal: questions

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Kendal?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Kendal?

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

How often should fire doors be maintained?

BS 9999 suggests fire doors are checked at least every six months, and more often in busy areas. In England, regulation 10 sets quarterly checks of communal doors in residential buildings over 11 metres. A contract sets the frequency for each building based on its use and risk.

Is there a minimum term?

Contracts are normally annual with a 90-day notice period, so you can review the service at each renewal.
