Fire Door Signage in Smethwick: questions

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Smethwick?

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

Can I use any fire door sign?

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

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Smethwick?

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.

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.
