Prioritised remedial quote

Fire doors take a beating in busy buildings. Our inspections find the faults before your fire risk assessor does. You get a door-by-door report with photos, a clear rating for each door and a prioritised remedial quote. Every job is recorded in OneTrace with photographs, location, a unique ID and pass/fail status. Clients and their fire risk assessor can view live records and download reports any time.

Fire door inspections you can act on

Fire doors take daily wear. Closers weaken, hinges drop, seals get painted over and gaps open up. An inspection tells you which doors still perform, which need repair and which need replacing, before a fire risk assessor or an incident finds the problem.

Under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, the responsible person for a residential building over 11 metres must check communal fire doors every three months and flat entrance doors at least once a year. Other buildings need regular checks under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 to show the doors are maintained in working order.

What we check on every door

Certification label or plug, and evidence of the door’s fire rating

Gaps around the leaf, measured against the doorset’s test evidence

Intumescent and smoke seals, hinges, closer and latching

Glazing, air transfer grilles and any alterations to the leaf

Frame fixing and the fire stopping around the frame

Signage and whether the door self-closes fully from any angle

What you receive

Each door is recorded in OneTrace with photographs, its location, a unique ID and a clear pass or fail. Defects are listed with a recommended action and priority, so you can plan repairs or replacements and show your fire risk assessor what has been done. You can view the records and download reports at any time.

Our inspectors work in occupied buildings with minimal disruption, including residential blocks, care homes, schools, hospitals and offices across London, the South East, East Anglia and the East Midlands. If doors fail, we can carry out the repairs as well, so the record goes from defect to fixed in one place.
