Fire Door Surveys Sheffield
Protecting People, Property and Compliance
Fire doors are a critical part of any building’s passive fire protection system. They are designed to contain fire and smoke, protect escape routes, and provide occupants with the crucial time needed to evacuate safely. A fire door is only effective though if it’s correctly installed, properly maintained, and regularly inspected.
For commercial buildings and high‑rise residential properties in the UK, strict legal requirements exist under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the Fire Safety Act 2021, and the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022. These regulations require:
- Quarterly checks of fire doors in communal areas of high‑rise residential buildings over 11m.
- Annual checks of flat entrance doors leading onto common parts.
- Regular inspections in commercial premises to ensure ongoing compliance and safety.
