Fire Stopping Around Doors in Warwickshire: questions
Will I get photos?
Yes. Every sealed location is photographed before and after, and logged.
Do you need to remove architraves?
Often, yes. The frame gap is usually hidden behind the architrave, so we remove and refit it to inspect and seal properly.
Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Warwickshire?
Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Warwickshire is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.
Do you work in occupied buildings in Warwickshire?
Yes. Inspections and repairs in Warwickshire can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
