Under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, responsible persons in multi-occupied residential buildings (over 11m in height) must arrange quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual checks of flat entrance doors.

Our team can provide extensive fire door solutions to the diverse commercial landscape of Grays, from the bustling Grays Shopping Centre and its retail establishments to the town's growing business parks and educational facilities that require expert passive fire protection compliance.
Although fire doors are designed to last for years, they won't perform their life-saving function without regular preventative maintenance. We've seen countless situations where neglected fire doors fail when they're needed most—a risk no business can afford.
Our preventative strategies include thorough six-monthly inspections following BMTRADA standards and SFG20 23-17 Task 7 requirements. We check hinges, seals, closers and latches to guarantee proper operation. Early identification of worn components prevents system failures and costly emergency repairs.
