Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Exmouth, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Exmouth?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Exmouth is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

Not always. Final exit doors to open air often are not fire-rated, but they must still open easily and be maintained.
