Communal fire doors in Mansfield, NG18

Communal fire doors for Mansfield buildings

We provide communal fire doors in Mansfield (NG18 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.

Fire doors in Mansfield protect escape routes in HMOs, converted period houses and industrial units alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.

The evidence pack for each communal door in Mansfield is set out to support whatever checking regime your fire risk assessment sets. Communal corridors and stairs in Mansfield buildings take the heaviest use, so we choose finishes and hardware that keep working between checks.

How do you work in an occupied building?

Escape routes have to stay usable. We phase communal door work so that no stair or corridor is left without protection overnight, keep a doorset ready to fit before removing the old one, and agree working hours with the building manager. Where a hold-open device is needed, we coordinate with your fire alarm contractor for the release interface.

What you get:

• Closers, coordinators and hold-opens as required
• Survey of every communal opening and its use
• Evidence pack suitable for regulation 10 records
• Tested vision panels and durable finishes

Fire door law for Mansfield properties

Fire doors in Mansfield fall under English rules. New and replacement doors are covered by the Building Regulations 2010 and Approved Document B. In workplaces and the common parts of blocks, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, as clarified by the Fire Safety Act 2021, puts the duty on the responsible person to keep fire doors suitable and maintained.

Higher-risk buildings of at least 18 metres or seven storeys also come under the Building Safety Act 2022, where works may need approval from the Building Safety Regulator.
