Questions from Accrington clients

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 Accrington?

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

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.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Accrington?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.
