Questions from Workington clients

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Workington?

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

Do you work in occupied buildings in Workington?

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

What happens to the old doors?

They are removed from site and disposed of responsibly.

When should a fire door be replaced rather than repaired?

When the leaf or frame is too damaged to repair within what its test evidence allows, when there is no evidence it is a fire door, or when the repair would cost more than a new doorset.
