1. Basic Fire-Door Check

Purpose of a Basic Fire Door Check

A practical first step if you’re not sure whether your doors are actually fire doors or not. Are these doors actually fire doors? What condition are they in? What needs to happen next?

Who is this for?

• Building owners or Facility managers who need clarity before investing in repairs or upgrades

• Buyers or renovators who want to understand existing fire door standards

What to Expect:

1. Visual check – We look at each door and frame for certification labels, seals, signage, closers etc.

2. Assess – We identify which doors are likely fire-rated, unclear, or not fire-rated.

3. Report – We write a short written summary showing which doors appear fire-rated. We give a summary of headline issues and simple actions to reduce immediate risk

You will receive:

• A short written summary showing which doors appear fire-rated. 

• Summary of headline issues and simple actions to reduce immediate risk

How This Differs from a Fire Door Compliance Survey

• Depth & time: Basic Check = quick visual triage (up to 1 hr total). Survey = detailed inspection (10-15 min per door).

• Evidence: Basic = no measurements or photos. Survey = photos, measurements, unique IDs, and full documentation.

• Outcome: Basic = overview only. Survey = door-by-door compliance rating and repair schedule.

• Sign-off: Basic = advisory. Survey = competent-person report suitable for audits and insurers.

Follow On Steps

• Book a Fire Door Compliance Survey to get a detailed inspection and full report on each door.

• Complete any recommended remedial work to bring all fire doors up to the required standard.

• Schedule Periodic Fire Door Compliance Checks every 6 months to ensure continued safety and legal compliance.
