How does it work in Wiltshire?

  1. Set up

    We tag and reference every communal fire door on the first visit so each later check is like for like.

  2. Check

    Each quarter the inspector checks every door and closer and records the result.

  3. Log

    You receive a dated log after every visit, with photographs of changes and defects.

  4. Fix

    Faults are priced on the spot; small items such as closer adjustment can be done on the same visit if you pre-approve them.

  • Fire Safety Act 2021: flat entrance doors are within scope
  • Regulation 10: quarterly communal checks and annual flat door checks above 11 m
  • Building Safety Act 2022: stronger record keeping and information duties

Quarterly Communal Fire Door Checks by town in Wiltshire

Quarterly Communal Fire Door Checks in Wiltshire: questions

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.

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 Wiltshire?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Wiltshire 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 Wiltshire?

Yes. As well as Wiltshire itself we cover nearby towns including Swindon, Salisbury and Trowbridge.
