Fire Door Inspections in Birmingham
One of our key services are regular fire door inspections. Fire doors play a vital role when it comes to slowing down the spread of fire and smoke. The purpose of fire doors is to give occupants the time needed to evacuate the premises by containing the fire. By carrying out regular detailed inspections you can help ensure that all fire doors within a building not only function correctly but continue to meet all legal requirements.
Our professional and fully certified team will assess all the main components of your fire doors during the inspection. This includes checking the integrity of the door and its frame, confirming that door closers are working as they should, examining hinges, seals and latches, as well making sure that you have the correct signage.
Any gaps around the doors are inspected to check that they fall within specified limits. If a fire door is incorrectly aligned or damaged it could significantly affect its ability to contain fire. After the inspection, we will provide you with a detailed report that outlines any remedial action necessary to ensure you continue to comply with all legislation. .
Compartmentation Surveys in Birmingham
To help combat the threat of fire, buildings are sometimes divided into smaller more manageable areas designed to limit the spread of fire and smoke. The aim of this is to help protect vital escape routes ensuring occupants of the building to evacuate in a safe manner.
When carrying out a compartmentation survey in Birmingham, our expert team will assess the current condition of fire-resistant walls, floors, ceilings, along with the barriers used to create these compartments. Our team will ensure that the conditions of your property fully meet British Standards approved document B along with the building’s fire strategy.
All passive fire protection systems such as fire doors and glazing are inspected to ensure all components meet relevant safety standards. If there are any breaches, gaps, or inadequacies in the fire compartments it is likely to compromise the overall safety of the building. Our compartmentation surveys will provide you with a comprehensive review of your building. Once the survey is complete our team will give you recommendations on any upgrades or repairs needed to improve fire containment.
