Fire Door Surveys in West Glamorgan

Across West Glamorgan, from Swansea to smaller towns and villages, 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 West Glamorgan: 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 West Glamorgan?

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies in Wales, and the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed flat entrance doors in multi-occupied residential buildings are within scope.

Do you work in occupied buildings in West Glamorgan?

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