Fire Door Surveys in Herefordshire
Across Herefordshire, including rural and island locations, we carry out fire door surveys for landlords, housing providers, schools and businesses.
Fire Door Surveys: 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.

Fire Door Surveys in Herefordshire: questions
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.
Can the survey support a section 20 consultation?
Yes. The costed schedule gives a clear description of the proposed works and their budget, which you can use when consulting leaseholders. Formal consultation remains the landlord's responsibility.
Which fire safety law applies in Herefordshire?
Herefordshire 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 Herefordshire?
Yes. Inspections and repairs in Herefordshire can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
