Fire Door Inspections
Our service identifies, assesses, and mitigates risks across all property types, ensuring compliance and safeguarding occupants in residential, commercial, and various other sectors
Why Do I Need Fire Door Inspections?
Fire doors are designed to slow the spread of fire and smoke, protecting escape routes and saving lives. Over time, wear and tear, poor installation, or damage can reduce their effectiveness, often without obvious signs.
Regular inspections give you clarity on condition, performance, and any remedial actions required.
When Are Fire Door Inspections Suitable?
✓ Following a Fire Risk Assessment recommendation
✓ In occupied residential buildings (including HMOs and blocks of flats)
✓ After building works, refurbishments, or door replacements
✓ As part of ongoing maintenance and asset management
✓ When managing multiple properties or high-risk buildings

-
Not all doors are equal. Communal doors, flat entrance doors, and riser cupboard doors may all require inspection depending on your building type.
-
Frequency depends on building use, risk level, and previous findings. Many residential buildings require routine checks to remain compliant.
-
Access may be required for flat entrance doors. Planning ahead with residents can help ensure smooth access and avoid delays.
-
Most buildings will have some level of defect. Reports will prioritise actions so you can address the most critical risks first.
How Fire Door Inspections Support Compliance
Fire door inspections help you meet your legal duties under regulations such as the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, which require responsible persons to ensure fire doors are regularly checked and maintained.
By identifying faults and documenting actions, inspections form a key part of demonstrating compliance and due diligence.
