Fire Door Maintenance Contracts in Pontefract

From the WF8 district outwards, we cover Pontefract and neighbouring towns such as Castleford and Wakefield for fire door maintenance contracts.

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.

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Pontefract?

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