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.

Common questions in Leigh

Do you work in occupied buildings in Leigh?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Leigh can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Leigh?

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

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.
