Fire Door Replacement in Worcestershire: questions
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.
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 Worcestershire?
Worcestershire 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.
