Fire Door Remedial Works in the Highlands & Islands: questions

Can you price remedial work from someone else's inspection report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line. If the report lacks the detail needed, such as gap readings or photos, we will say which doors need a quick revisit before we can price them.

Will the door still be a certified fire door after repair?

The aim of remedial work is to restore the door's original performance using compatible components and methods. Where a repair would go outside what the door's evidence supports, we will recommend replacement instead.

Does regulation 10 apply in the Highlands & Islands?

No. the Highlands & Islands is in Scotland, which has its own fire safety law. The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 cover workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises; common parts of private blocks of flats are largely outside them.

Do you work in occupied buildings in the Highlands & Islands?

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