ENSURE YOUR COMPLIANCE
Almost all workplaces have a fire risk assessment and these do tend to look at fire doors however, they only try to indentify obvious issues with the door such as the fire door not shutting or there are missing seals, they’re not an in depth look at the door. A fire door survey will look in detail at the existing fire doors and determine whether they are compliant and how they can be improved. A report will then be issued highlighting all aspects of the door.
If a fire door has been repaired, it can no longer be classified as a certified fire door. A fire door survey will look at a variety of points including the construction of the door, do the hinges conform, does the fire glass have the correct markings, are the seals adequate and more.
After a survey, a full detailed report will be provided highling any required improvements.
A fire protection system is only as good as the equipment that you use. Therefore, it’s important to carry out maintenance checks on every possible point of failure and your fire door is no exception.
Fire doors in some locations are subject to heavy usage and are likely to suffer damage as a result of everyday wear and tear. For example, doors in hospital corridors are liable to be damaged by trolleys, while closers are often damaged in delivery areas and residential blocks due to doors being jammed open.
Ensuring that fire doors are safe and compliant is an essential part of building maintenance. If you own, manage or operate a business or building, you must comply to the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. This applies across England and Wales.
All fire doors should be checked regularly on site by a competent person to ensure they function correctly. Any defect, damage or fault with the door should be reported and rectified immediately. We recommend that a full fire door survey is carried out annually to identify and rectify non-compliance issues.
