Annual Flat Entrance Door Checks in Meikle Earnock

Responsible persons in Meikle Earnock can book flat entrance door checks with clear reports, useful photos and itemised prices.

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 Meikle Earnock.

Annual Flat Entrance Door Checks in Meikle Earnock: questions

Can you price remedial work in Meikle Earnock from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Meikle Earnock, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

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.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply in Meikle Earnock?

No. Meikle Earnock is in Scotland, which has its own fire safety law. The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 cover workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises; common parts of private blocks of flats are largely outside them.
