Elgin FAQs
Can a damaged fire door be repaired or does it need replacing?
Many faults can be repaired: closers, hinges, seals, small edge damage and beads. Holes through the leaf, major splits, delamination or damage to the frame often mean the door should be replaced. We will tell you which applies and why.
Can you fill a large gap with extra intumescent strip?
Not as a general fix. Gaps outside tolerance are usually corrected by re-hanging, lipping or adjusting the frame, because oversized intumescent strips are not a substitute for a door that fits.
Can you price remedial work in Elgin from another company's report?
Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Elgin, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.
Does regulation 10 apply in Elgin?
No. Elgin 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.
