Fire Door Surveys in Letchworth Garden City

We provide fire door surveys for buildings in Letchworth Garden City and the SG6 postcode district, from single doors to whole blocks and estates.

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 Letchworth Garden City.

Fire Door Surveys in Letchworth Garden City: questions

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.

Can you price remedial work in Letchworth Garden City from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Letchworth Garden City, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Letchworth Garden City?

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