Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Gillingham

From the ME7 district outwards, we cover Gillingham and neighbouring towns such as Chatham and Rochester for fire door maintenance contracts.

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.

Questions from Gillingham clients

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Gillingham?

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

Can one contract cover buildings across the country?

Yes. Multi-site contracts are scheduled by region and reported in one register.

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.

Yes. As well as Gillingham itself we cover nearby towns including Chatham, Rochester and Strood.
