Quarterly Communal Fire Door Checks in Grimsby: questions

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.

Do you cover the area around Grimsby?

Yes. As well as Grimsby itself we cover nearby towns including Cleethorpes, Kingston upon Hull and Scunthorpe.

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 Grimsby?

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