Firestopping

Our expertise also extends to comprehensive fire door inspections, improving safety and ensuring compliance across various industries.

Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022

Introduced in January 2023, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 set new legal duties for those managing multi-occupied residential buildings over 11m high. This includes regular fire door checks to ensure they remain effective after the initial fire risk assessment.

The legally responsible person for a building’s fire safety—typically the landlord or manager—must conduct annual inspections of flat entrance doors and quarterly checks on communal fire doors, especially those crossing corridors. The goal is to confirm the doors are in proper working condition and free of any defects that could compromise their ability to prevent the spread of fire and smoke.

Section 156 of the Building Safety Act

Effective from October 1st, 2023, this section strengthens fire safety obligations for building managers.
