Which fire door rules apply in Bexhill-on-Sea?
In Bexhill-on-Sea, as elsewhere in England, the starting point is the Fire Safety Order 2005: whoever controls a workplace or the shared parts of a residential block must make sure its fire doors work. When doors are replaced, the Building Regulations and Approved Document B set the standard the new work has to meet.
Blocks above 11 metres have a specific routine under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: quarterly checks of communal fire doors and annual best-endeavours checks of flat front doors. If your Bexhill-on-Sea building is a higher-risk building under the Building Safety Act 2022, we confirm the approval route with the Principal Accountable Person before any work is ordered.

It depends on the number of doors and access, but we offer survey dates as soon as we reply to your enquiry. If an inspection has found urgent safety issues, tell us and we'll prioritise.
Do fire doors need signs?
Most fire doors in non-domestic buildings and common parts should carry signage showing whether they are to be kept shut, kept locked or are automatic.
Can I fit a new lock to a fire door?
Only one that is covered by the door's test evidence, fitted with the correct intumescent protection. A larger lock body or new holes can compromise the door.
