Fire Door Surveys in Manchester

Need a fire door survey in Manchester? 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 Manchester.

Common questions in Manchester

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 cover the area around Manchester?

Yes. As well as Manchester itself we cover nearby towns including Salford, Old Trafford and Failsworth.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Manchester?

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

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.
