Questions from Ramsgate clients

Do you work in occupied buildings in Ramsgate?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Ramsgate can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.

Can I use any fire door sign?

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

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Ramsgate?

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