Frequently asked questions about fire door inspections in Amersham

How often should fire doors be inspected in Amersham?
Fire doors should be checked regularly as part of your fire risk assessment. We recommend a formal inspection at least annually, with quarterly visual checks by a competent person. For Amersham sites, we confirm the exact recommendation during survey because building layout, occupancy and local authority or insurer requirements can change the specification.
What does a fire door inspection involve in Amersham?
We inspect the door leaf, frame, glazing, intumescent seals, smoke seals, hinges, closer, signage, and gaps. Each door receives a condition grade and any defects are photographed and reported.
Are fire door inspections a legal requirement in Amersham?
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to ensure fire doors are maintained in good working order. Regular inspections demonstrate compliance.
