Lee King

I have over 20 years of experience working in the fire safety industry. With expertise in fire door inspections and fire alarm commissioning.

I have worked on a wide range of fire safety systems and equipment, including fire doors, fire alarms, and emergency lighting, across various settings such as commercial and residential buildings, healthcare facilities, educational institutions, and government buildings.

And have worked on many prestigious sites across the country, developing a deep understanding of the complexities involved in ensuring safety and compliance in high-risk environments.

What We Look For

Our qualified fire door inspectors thoroughly examine every aspect of your fire doors to ensure they are in compliance with the necessary safety standards.

 

We check for common faults such as door leaf or frame damage, incorrect seals and gaps, missing or damaged hardware, warping or twisting, and poor installation. During the inspection, we use specialized tools and equipment to test the door's closing mechanism, check the seals and gaps around the door, and confirm that the door is installed correctly.

 

Our detailed inspection reports provide you with a comprehensive overview of the state of your fire doors and any necessary repairs or maintenance needed to ensure the safety of your building.

Common Faults

  • Door leaf or frame damage: This can include dents, scratches, cracks, or splits that can compromise the door's integrity and allow smoke and fire to spread through the gaps.

  • Incorrect seals and gaps: The intumescent seals around the door can degrade over time or be installed incorrectly, leading to gaps that allow smoke and fire to pass through.

  • Missing or damaged hardware: Fire doors need to have certain hardware, such as closers, locks, hinges, and door viewers, that can become damaged or missing over time.

  • Warping or twisting: Due to exposure to heat and moisture, fire doors can warp or twist, which can affect their ability to close properly and seal against smoke and fire.

  • Poor installation: If the fire door was not installed correctly, it may not meet the required safety standards and fail to perform as intended.
