THE IMPORTANCE OF FIRE DOORS
Fire doors are an essential part of a building’s passive fire protection system tasked with compartmentalising a fire, protecting property and avoiding the potentially tragic consequences of serious injury or death. It is therefore imperative that the condition of the fire doors in all buildings are continually fit for purpose and legally compliant to the regulations.
THE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 came into force on 23 January 2023 and apply only in England. It is a legal requirement in residential buildings with storeys over 11 metres in height for the Responsible Persons to:
- Undertake annual checks of flat entrance doors
- Undertake quarterly checks of all fire doors in communal areas
- Provide residents with information relating to the importance of fire doors in fire safety
