Fire Door Replacement in Wishaw: questions

Which fire safety law applies in Wishaw?

In Scotland, fire safety duties for workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, with new work designed to the Scottish building standards.

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.

Can you price remedial work in Wishaw from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Wishaw, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

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.
