Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Dumfries

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

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. We use the same method for buildings in Dumfries.
