Offices, shops and hotels in Rugeley can have fire doors fitted out of hours so trading is not interrupted. Each commercial door we fit in Rugeley gets a record your fire risk assessor can use straight away.
Access control and hold-opens
Modern offices and hotels often combine fire doors with access control, electric locks and hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm. Electric locking on an escape route has to release safely, and any holes, cables and devices in the door must be covered by the evidence. We coordinate with your security and fire alarm contractors on the interfaces.
On a typical job that means:
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
- Per-door evidence for your fire risk assessment
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Doorsets with veneer, laminate or paint finishes
The regulations behind fire doors in Rugeley
England's framework applies in Rugeley. Approved Document B guides the fire performance of new and replacement doors under the Building Regulations 2010. Day-to-day duties sit with the responsible person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, and for multi-occupied residential buildings, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties such as giving residents information about fire doors.
For blocks over 11 metres in Rugeley, those regulations require communal fire door checks at least every three months and best-endeavours flat entrance door checks each year. In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.
