Common questions in Sandhurst

Do fire exit doors need panic bars?

Panic hardware to BS EN 1125 is normally used where members of the public or people unfamiliar with the building use the exit. Emergency exit devices to BS EN 179 can be suitable where users are trained staff. The fire risk assessment decides.

How often should fire exits be checked?

Many responsible persons check them weekly as part of the fire log, with a detailed check at least annually.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Sandhurst?

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Sandhurst?

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