Questions from Ashford clients

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 Ashford (Kent)?

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

Can you price remedial work in Ashford (Kent) from another company's report?

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

Can I use any fire door sign?

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