Questions from Oadby clients

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Oadby?

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

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.

Do you cover the area around Oadby?

Yes. As well as Oadby itself we cover nearby towns including Wigston Magna, Leicester and Market Harborough.

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.
