Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Devon: questions
Is there a minimum term?
Contracts are normally annual with a 90-day notice period, so you can review the service at each renewal.
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.
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Devon?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Devon is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.
Do you work in occupied buildings in Devon?
Yes. Inspections and repairs in Devon can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
