Bexley FAQs

Do all fire doors need a sign?

Most do. Self-closing fire doors usually need fire door keep shut signs; doors to cupboards and risers usually need keep locked shut; doors on hold-open devices need automatic fire door signs. Some doors, such as flat entrance doors and hotel bedroom doors, are commonly treated differently.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Bexley?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Bexley is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

Do you cover the area around Bexley?

Yes. As well as Bexley itself we cover nearby towns including Welling, Dartford and Swanley.

Can I use any fire door sign?

Use mandatory blue-and-white signs consistent with BS ISO 7010 and the building's existing signage.
