Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Hove

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Hove, 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 Hove.

Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Hove: questions

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Hove?

Hove is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Hove?

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.

Is there a minimum term?

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