Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Lancaster

From the LA1 district outwards, we cover Lancaster and neighbouring towns such as Morecambe and Fleetwood 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.

Common questions in Lancaster

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 Lancaster?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Lancaster 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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Lancaster?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Lancaster can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
