Fire Exit Door Checks in Coity

From the CF31 district outwards, we cover Coity and neighbouring towns such as Bridgend and Maesteg for fire exit door checks.

A fire exit door check confirms that every final exit door opens easily in the direction of escape without a key, that its panic or emergency hardware works, and that the route beyond it is clear and signed. We use the same method for buildings in Coity.

Questions from Coity clients

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.

Does regulation 10 apply in Coity?

No. Coity is in Wales and regulation 10 is English law. The Fire Safety Order 2005 still requires fire doors to be maintained, and many Welsh landlords follow the same quarterly and annual routine as good practice.

Are fire exit doors fire doors?

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

Do you cover the area around Coity?

Yes. As well as Coity itself we cover nearby towns including Bridgend, Maesteg and Tonypandy.
