Questions from Oxford clients

Can you price remedial work in Oxford from another company's report?

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Oxford?

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

Is a missing sign a serious defect?

It will normally be recorded as a fail or advisory. It is quick and cheap to fix, so it is best done on the same visit.

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.
