Our Accreditations

How do you inspect a fire door?

A fire door inspection includes checking the certification label, ensuring gaps are 3-4mm, and verifying intumescent seals are intact. Hinges, closers, and latches must be fire-rated and functional. The door should close fully and latch automatically without obstruction. Any damage, warping, or missing seals can compromise safety and require immediate attention.
How often does a fire door need to be checked?

Fire doors should be inspected every 6 months, but high-traffic areas like hospitals and schools may require checks every 3 months. Residential buildings and workplaces should have annual inspections to ensure compliance.
How to check if a door is fire-rated?

Look for a certification label on the door’s top or side. Fire doors are typically 44mm (FD30) or 54mm (FD60) thick. Intumescent seals should be intact, and hinges must be fire-rated. The door should close fully and latch automatically.
What is the fire door test procedure?

Fire doors are tested under BS 476-22 or EN 1634-1 standards. The test includes exposure to fire, checking integrity (flame resistance), insulation (heat control), and self-closing function. It ensures the door blocks fire and smoke for the certified duration (e.g., FD30 = 30 minutes).
