Fire Door Replacement in Cheltenham: questions

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Cheltenham?

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

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.

Do you cover the area around Cheltenham?

Yes. As well as Cheltenham itself we cover nearby towns including Tewkesbury, Gloucester and Stroud.
