Common questions in Waterlooville

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Waterlooville?

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

Do you cover the area around Waterlooville?

Yes. As well as Waterlooville itself we cover nearby towns including Havant, Portsmouth and Fareham.

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.

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.
