Fire Door Surveys

Fire Legislation In The UK

 

Legislation in England, Scotland and Wales states that if you’re an employer, owner, landlord or occupier of business or non-domestic premises, and you are the ‘responsible person’ for fire safety in a building, you must take the necessary steps to protect occupants from the risk of fire. This duty includes arranging Fire Door Surveys where required. It is your legal responsibility to ensure that all passive and active fire protection measures are covered by a sustained, suitable and sufficient programme of inspection and maintenance.
Support is Available
The fire safety process always starts with a fire risk assessment. A suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment will identify whether a fire door survey is needed on your property. At Staines Safety Services, we provide professional fire door surveys across Middlesbrough, Leeds, London and nationwide. If you want to learn more about fire doors or need advice, contact our team. If you’re unsure whether your existing risk assessment has been carried out properly, your local fire and rescue authority may be able to advise you — although they cannot carry out the assessment themselves. That’s why it’s essential to arrange a thorough fire door survey for your premises in Middlesbrough, Leeds, London or anywhere in the UK, ensuring every component of your fire doors fully complies with current fire safety legislation.

Fire Door Inspections ensure that your fire doors are compliant and working right

At Staines Safety Services, we offer a professional and expert fire door inspection service. Our Fire Door Inspectors are fully qualified to carry out the inspections of your fire doors and prepare a detailed report on the fire doors on your premises.

In 2022, 75% of fire doors failed their inspections. A failed inspection can happen for a number of reasons such as incorrect installation or general maintenance issues. We can ensure that your door is properly installed, checking for any excess gaps or sealing issues. We offer reliable services and our main aim is to provide each customer with a peace of mind regarding their fire safety standards.

The Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order puts the responsibility of Fire Safety on the owner of the building, or to nominate a responsible person who must be competent. The ultimate method of providing assurances that the passive fire protection installations within a building are installed correctly, is to have a third-party inspection on these provisions by a competent person.
