Questions from Paignton clients

Can residents stay in while flat doors are replaced?

Yes. Flat entrance doors are usually replaced in a single visit and the flat is never left without a lockable door.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Paignton?

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

Do you cover the area around Paignton?

Yes. As well as Paignton itself we cover nearby towns including Torquay, Newton Abbot and Exmouth.

How long does a replacement take?

Most single doorsets are replaced within a day, including making good. Doors are never left unable to close at the end of a working day.
