Fire Door Surveys in Swadlincote

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Swadlincote, our fire door surveys follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

A fire door survey is a more detailed version of an inspection, used when you need to plan and budget: it grades every defect by urgency, decides whether each door should be repaired, upgraded or replaced, and turns the findings into a costed schedule of works. We use the same method for buildings in Swadlincote.

Questions from Swadlincote clients

What is the difference between a fire door inspection and a survey?

An inspection records whether each door passes or fails. A survey goes further: it grades each defect, recommends repair, upgrade or replacement, and costs the work so you can budget.

Do you measure for new doors during the survey?

Where a door is likely to need replacing we record the leaf and opening sizes, so a replacement quotation can follow without a second visit in most cases.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Swadlincote?

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Swadlincote?

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