What the rules say for Lisburn
Lisburn is in Northern Ireland, where fire doors are covered by the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012 and Technical Booklet E on fire safety. Duties in non-domestic premises come from the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 and the Fire Safety Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2010.
The English regulation 10 checking regime does not apply here, so the fire risk assessment sets how often doors in Lisburn are checked. We hand over evidence that supports it.
Which buildings in Lisburn need fire door ironmongery?
From schools to hotels, the requirement for fire door ironmongery in Lisburn comes from the fire strategy or risk assessment for the building. We work from that document, or help you interpret your inspection report, before quoting.

Can I fit a new lock to a fire door?

Usually at least three, of the type and grade specified in the door's evidence. Heavier or taller doors may need more.
