Luton FAQs
Do the checks apply in Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland?
No. Regulation 10 is English law. Fire safety law elsewhere in the UK differs in scope, and many landlords and factors adopt the same quarterly routine as good practice.
Which fire safety law applies in Luton?
Luton 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.
Which buildings need quarterly fire door checks?
In England, regulation 10 applies to multi-occupied residential buildings with storeys over 11 metres. All fire doors in the common parts must be checked at least every three months. Lift landing doors are excluded.
Can you price remedial work in Luton from another company's report?
Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Luton, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.
