Annual Flat Entrance Door Checks in Warwickshire: questions

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.

What does best endeavours mean?

The government fact sheet describes it as the responsible person deciding how to engage residents to gain access and keeping evidence, such as correspondence, where access is refused or not possible.

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 cover the area around Warwickshire?

Yes. As well as Warwickshire itself we cover nearby towns including Nuneaton, Rugby and Royal Leamington Spa.
