Fire Door Surveys in Lancashire

We provide fire door surveys across Lancashire, including Preston, Burnley and Blackburn, with the same report format and pricing wherever your buildings are.

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 Lancashire: questions

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.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Lancashire?

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

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Lancashire?

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.
