Quarterly Communal Fire Door Checks in Bury

Quarterly Communal Fire Door Checks in Bury, Greater Manchester: every door logged, photographed and graded, with a clear price for anything that needs putting right.

Quarterly communal fire door checks are the three-monthly checks that regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 requires in multi-occupied residential buildings with storeys over 11 metres. They cover every fire door in the common parts, including its self-closing device. We use the same method for buildings in Bury.

Common questions in Bury

Does the person doing the check have to be certificated?

The government fact sheet says the responsible person should be able to do the basic checks themselves and that a specialist is not needed for them. Many responsible persons still outsource the checks to make sure they happen on time and are properly recorded.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Bury?

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

What records do I get?

A dated log for every visit listing each door, its result and photos of anything that has changed or failed.

Do you cover the area around Bury?

Yes. As well as Bury itself we cover nearby towns including Radcliffe, Heywood and Whitefield.
