Fire Door Inspection, Remedials & Installation
WHAT ARE FIRE DOORS?
Fire doors are a vital element in passive fire protection in every building. Without a fire door, a building’s fire protection compartmentation function is compromised.
Fire doors are specifically designed to slow the progress of a fire, smoke and any toxic gases. They halt the spread between compartments within the building – playing an essential role in safeguarding escape routes and ensuring evacuation can safely take place.
WHERE DO YOU FIND THEM?
Fire doors are necessary for all doorways leading to escape routes and are typically essential for rooms with a higher risk of fire outbreaks, such as IT rooms, boiler rooms, or areas containing flammable liquids. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order of 2005 mandates property owners to comply with the legal requirement of fitting appropriate fire doors in all establishments, except private residences. As per the Act, these fire doors must be installed by ‘competent person.’
WHY YOU TEST THEM?
Fire doors are critical components of fire safety systems. Testing ensures they meet safety standards and regulations, helping to protect occupants in case of a fire. Regular testing verifies that fire doors are functioning correctly. This includes checking the door’s ability to close and latch properly, as well as ensuring that seals and hardware are in good condition. Fire doors not only prevent the spread of flames but also restrict smoke. Testing ensures that they can effectively contain smoke, which is a significant hazard during a fire.
