Fire door compliance support across Devon and Cornwall

Fire doors are a critical part of fire safety. They help slow the spread of fire and smoke, protect escape routes, and support safe evacuation. If fire doors are damaged, poorly fitted, or not maintained, they may not perform as intended in a fire.

Many duty holders know fire doors matter, but are unsure what good compliance looks like, how often checks should happen, and what evidence should be kept. We help you understand your responsibilities and take practical next steps.

FIRE DOORS

Who this is for

Common issues

Fire door problems can be easy to miss until you know what to look for.

Damaged door leaves or frames

Missing or unsuitable ironmongery

Damage to hinges, closers, and latches

Incorrect gaps and seals

Poor closing action

Poorly maintained signage and door furniture

Why evidence matters

If you are responsible for a building, you may need to demonstrate that fire doors are suitable, maintained, and checked. Clear evidence supports compliance and helps you manage risk.

A structured approach also makes it easier to plan remedial works, budget sensibly, and avoid last minute panic when an audit or inspection is due.
