Fire door ironmongery in Burnley, done to the evidence
We provide fire door ironmongery in Burnley (BB10 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
In and around Burnley, fire door work covers everything from purpose-built flats to GP surgeries. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Missing hinge screws and unsuitable locks are routine findings on fire door inspections everywhere; in Burnley we replace them with hardware covered by each door's evidence. Signage for fire doors in Burnley buildings is fitted as part of the job, not as an afterthought.
Signage
Most fire doors need a sign saying whether they should be kept shut, kept locked or are automatic. We fit signage appropriate to the door's use as part of the installation.
As standard, the work covers:
- Fire door signage
- Fire-rated hinges, commonly grade 13
- Locks and latches covered by the evidence
- Lever handles, pull handles and push plates
Fire door law for Burnley properties
The rules that apply to fire doors in Burnley are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Burnley block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.
