Common questions in Ashford

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Ashford (Kent)?

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

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.

Do you use the original manufacturer's parts?

Where they are available and appropriate. Otherwise we use components with suitable fire test evidence for the door type.

Do you cover the area around Ashford (Kent)?

Yes. As well as Ashford (Kent) itself we cover nearby towns including Faversham, Canterbury and Folkestone.
