Wherever your building is in Dyfed, the fire safety duties come from national rules, and our installation standard is the same.
Overhead, concealed or free-swing
Overhead closers are the most common and easiest to maintain. Concealed closers keep a clean look and deter tampering, if covered by the door's evidence. Free-swing closers let a door move freely in everyday use and close when the fire alarm sounds, which is useful in care homes and for people who find doors hard to open.
Fire door law for Dyfed properties
Fire door work in Dyfed follows Welsh building regulations and the Welsh Approved Document B. The Fire Safety Order 2005 covers workplaces and the shared parts of residential buildings here too, placing the duty on the responsible person.
The English regulation 10 checking regime does not extend to Dyfed, so how often doors are checked comes from the fire risk assessment. We hand over evidence that fits whatever regime your assessor sets.
