Fire Door Compliance
Navigating fire safety legislation can be complex. Our team provides the expert oversight necessary to ensure your building remains compliant with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the Building Regulations.
- Our team, including GQA and FireQual trained professionals, identifies critical non-compliance issues - from incorrect hardware to improper fire stopping.
- We follow strict repair protocols validated by UK Fire Door Training, ensuring that maintenance work never compromises the door’s original fire rating.
- Our technicians stay current with the latest legislation through continuous professional development, ensuring your site always meets the most recent UK safety standards.

How It Works
Initial Compliance Survey
A qualified surveyor inspects fire doors, frames, hardware and intumescent seals against current legislation and guidance, noting defects and risk to means of escape.
Compliance Report & Remedial Plan
You receive an audit-ready report that cites the Fire Safety Act and RR(FS)O requirements, a prioritised remedial schedule, and an estimated programme for works.
Implementation & Evidence
We complete agreed repairs, install certified hardware, issue certificates and a compliance logbook, and can arrange scheduled servicing and re-inspections.
