Inspection & Maintenance

Harlington Upper School

A door-by-door inspection of 168 fire doors at a secondary school, giving the school a clear, prioritised remedial programme.

Project overview

A door-by-door fire door survey for the school’s facilities management provider, carried out between March and July 2026.

SCOPE

Inspect every fire door on site: 168 doors across the school, recording gaps, seals, hinges, closers, signage and frame condition for each one, with photos logged against every door in OneTrace.

WHAT WE DID

132 doors were found to need remedial work and 31 to need full replacement (FD30s singles and doubles and FD60s doubles). 5 needed no work. In total we logged 423 individual remedial tasks, including 103 doors to ease and adjust, 99 hinge sets, 103 drop seals and 73 intumescent seal replacements.

OUTCOME

The school has a clear, costed and prioritised programme of remedial work, and every door has a traceable record, so the next annual inspection starts from a known baseline.
