Common questions in Rochdale

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Rochdale?

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.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Rochdale?

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