Common questions in Royal Tunbridge Wells

Do you cover the area around Royal Tunbridge Wells?

Yes. As well as Royal Tunbridge Wells itself we cover nearby towns including Tonbridge, Crowborough and Sevenoaks.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Royal Tunbridge Wells?

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

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.
