Fire Exit Door Checks in Wellington

Wellington landlords, managing agents and facilities teams can book fire exit door checks with straightforward reports and fixed prices.

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 Wellington.
