Common questions in Lofthouse
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Lofthouse?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Lofthouse is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.
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.
Do you work in occupied buildings in Lofthouse?
Yes. Inspections and repairs in Lofthouse can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
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.
