Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Maidstone

Maidstone landlords, managing agents and facilities teams can book fire door maintenance contracts with straightforward reports and fixed prices.

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.

Maidstone FAQs

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Maidstone?

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

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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Maidstone?
