Fire Door Signage in Bedfordshire: questions
Do signs go on both sides of the door?
Self-closing fire doors are generally signed on both faces. Cupboard and riser doors are usually signed on the outside only.
Can I use any fire door sign?
Use mandatory blue-and-white signs consistent with BS ISO 7010 and the building's existing signage.
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Bedfordshire?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Bedfordshire is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.
