Annual Flat Entrance Door Checks in Bearsden

Looking for a flat entrance door check in Bearsden? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Bearsden and surrounding parts of Dunbartonshire, with a door-by-door report and every remedial item priced separately.

Annual flat entrance door checks are yearly checks of each flat's front door and its self-closer. England's regulation 10 makes them a best-endeavours duty above 11 metres; in Scotland the schedule is not set by that regulation, but checking flat doors every year is a sensible way to evidence maintenance. We use the same method for buildings in Bearsden.

Annual Flat Entrance Door Checks in Bearsden: questions

Which fire safety law applies in Bearsden?

In Scotland, fire safety duties for workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises come from the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, with new work designed to the Scottish building standards.

Can you check the doors from the corridor only?

Part of the check can be done from outside, but the self-closer and the inside face need access to the flat. Where we cannot get in we record what was checked and why the rest was not possible.

What if a leaseholder has fitted a non-fire-rated door?

The report flags it with photographs and the evidence available. The responsible person and fire risk assessor then decide on the action, which may include asking the leaseholder to replace it.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Bearsden?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Bearsden can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
