What is a professional fire door inspector?
The ‘Fire Safety Order’ became law in England & Wales in 2006 and the fire & rescue authority ceased to provide fire certificates. Any certificate previously issued under the Fire Precautions Act 1971 is no longer valid. This means building owners, occupiers and managers carry the legal responsibility for fire safety at their buildings. Once the completed building is handed over the person or organisation that controls the building must by law take reasonable precautions to ensure people are adequately protected, in a fire.
So, where fire doors have been incorrectly installed at the construction stage it’s the building owner, occupier or manager that is potentially liable where issues come to light. This may be due to a fire at the building or because of a visit from the local fire and rescue authority. Any search of media stories covering prosecutions under fire safety law will reveal that such breaches can be severely punished and more common than you might think. Especially where there is sleeping accommodation such as in the housing and hospitality sectors.
Professional Fire Door Inspectors services are in demand to help building owners, occupiers and managers to improve standards. Their inspection reports should comprehensively detail any installation faults, non-compliances and maintenance issues. Inspector’s findings are that the most common faults with fire doors stem from poor quality installation.
