Chichester FAQs

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Chichester?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Chichester 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.

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 work in occupied buildings in Chichester?

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