Common questions in Cannock

Do fire exit doors need panic bars?

Panic hardware to BS EN 1125 is normally used where members of the public or people unfamiliar with the building use the exit. Emergency exit devices to BS EN 179 can be suitable where users are trained staff. The fire risk assessment decides.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Cannock?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Cannock?

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