Fire door Inspection Solutions

Identifying issues, resolving risks

Knowing where your building’s fire protection compliance needs improvement, and taking corrective action, is key to the value a true compliance partner adds to your organisation.

At Commercial Fire Protection we’re your early warning system for fire door issues – and a competent authority to sign compliance off when all’s well.

Over time, wear and tear, running repairs, and modifications may mean your fire doors are no longer able to do the job expected of them – meaning they are not legally compliant.

Our skilled team of certified BM Trada Q-Mark Scheme fire engineers examines every component of fire door sets in your building – including handles, hinges, glazing, frames, gaps, seals, and the door leaves themselves – to flag risks and return your commercial property to compliance.

Helping you be a compliance leader

According to a survey by the Fire Door Inspection Scheme, 75% of all fire door sets fail to meet the UK standard.

Fire safety organisations recommend that fire door inspections should be carried out at least every six months, and government guidance for communal areas is every three months.

Periodic inspections by our qualified fire professionals will help us identify and remedy the common faults that can creep in between inspections and lead to a fire breach, including:

  • Missing or damaged intumescent strips or cold smoke seals – without which flames, smoke and toxic gases can easily spread.
  • Damaged or incorrect vision panels – We’ll ensure your fire doors are fitted with the correct fire-resistant glazing.
  • Ineffective door closers, which could compromise your doors in the event of a fire.
  • Ill-fitting doors or frames – We’ll ensure gaps around your doors meet British Standards.
  • Hinge wear and tear – Worn or defective hinges could render intumescent strips and smoke seals ineffective, allowing flames, smoke, and gases through.

Why entrust your fire door inspections to us?

At Commercial Fire Protection, we’re a certified fire protection company, so our team works with you to highlight issues, risks, and the action needed if any of your building’s fire doors are inspected and found to be non-compliant.
