Fire Door Replacement in Hertfordshire: questions
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.
Which fire safety law applies in Hertfordshire?
Hertfordshire 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.
