Fire Door Surveys in Guildford

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Guildford, our fire door surveys follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

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 Guildford.

Fire Door Surveys in Guildford: questions

Do you cover the area around Guildford?

Yes. As well as Guildford itself we cover nearby towns including Godalming, Woking and Aldershot.

Can you survey a whole portfolio?

Yes. Multi-site surveys are scheduled building by building and delivered as one register so you can compare buildings.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Guildford?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Guildford 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.
