Fire Door Replacement in Essex: questions
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.
What happens to the old doors?
They are removed from site and disposed of responsibly.
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Essex?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Essex 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 Essex?
Yes. Inspections and repairs in Essex can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
