Fire Door Surveys in York

We provide fire door surveys for buildings in York and the YO1 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 York.

York FAQs

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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in York?

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

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 York?

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