Common questions in Islington

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Islington?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

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.

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Islington?

Islington is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.
