Common questions in Kidderminster
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 Kidderminster?
Yes. As well as Kidderminster itself we cover nearby towns including Stourport-on-Severn, Stourbridge and Kingswinford.
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Kidderminster?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Kidderminster 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.
