Fire Exit Door Checks in Yate: questions
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.
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Yate?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Yate is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.
Can a fire exit be locked?
It must be openable from inside without a key at all times the building is occupied. Security locks that need a key from inside are not acceptable on escape routes.
Do you work in occupied buildings in Yate?
Yes. Inspections and repairs in Yate can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
