Why Fire Door Inspections and Fire Risk Assessments Are Important
Remain Compliant with UK Regulations
Fire doors help restrict the spread of fire and smoke. Our inspections identify visible defects such as excessive gaps, damaged seals and faulty closers, with photographic findings and practical recommendations.
An inspection records the condition and limitations found at the time; it does not guarantee performance in a fire.
Peace of Mind You Can Rely On
A clear report helps you understand what needs attention and plan remedial work. Acting on the findings, maintaining precautions and reviewing arrangements are essential parts of ongoing fire safety management.
Fire Risk Assessments Are a Legal Requirement
A fire risk assessment considers hazards, people at risk, existing precautions and improvements needed. We explain the findings and prioritise actions so you can plan the next steps for your premises.

What is a fire risk assessment?
A fire risk assessment is a thorough evaluation of a building to identify fire hazards, assess the level of risk, and determine what safety measures are needed to protect people and property. It includes reviewing fire detection systems, escape routes, and procedures, ensuring everything is in place to reduce the risk of fire and enable safe evacuation.
Do I need a fire risk assessment for my property?
If you are responsible for a non-domestic property, rental property, or shared residential building in the UK, you are legally required to have a fire risk assessment. This includes landlords, employers, and property managers.
