Need a fire door survey in Barnstaple? Tell us the building and roughly how many doors, and we will confirm a fixed price before booking.

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 Barnstaple.

Questions from Barnstaple clients

Which fire safety law applies in Barnstaple?

Barnstaple is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Barnstaple?

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

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.

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.
