Fire Door Survey & Remediation

Why Fire Door Compliance Matters

Fire doors are legally required in almost all non-domestic buildings and multi-occupancy residential properties. They help prevent the spread of fire and smoke, protect escape routes, and provide valuable time for evacuation.

• Required under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005
• Must comply with BS 8214, BS 476, and Building Regulations Approved Document B
• Essential for Responsible Persons under the Fire Safety Act 2021 and Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022
• Landlords of high-rise residential buildings must now carry out quarterly checks on communal fire doors and annual checks on flat entrance doors
