Fire Door Tagging & Asset Registers in Kent: questions

Can I keep using my own door numbers?

Yes. We can adopt your existing references or map them to new tags.

Where is the tag fitted?

Usually on the top edge or hinge edge of the leaf, where it can be read without affecting the door's seals or performance.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Kent?

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

Do you work in occupied buildings in Kent?

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