Cannock FAQs

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Cannock?

Cannock is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Who is responsible for a flat entrance fire door?

It depends on the lease, but since the Fire Safety Act 2021 the Fire Safety Order clearly covers flat entrance doors in multi-occupied residential buildings, so the responsible person must account for them in the fire risk assessment even where the leaseholder owns the door.

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Cannock?

It depends on the number of doors and access. Tell us what you need and we will give you the earliest date when you call, and confirm it in writing.
