HMO fire doors for Heanor buildings
When you book HMO fire doors in Heanor, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Fire doors in Heanor protect escape routes in care homes, small blocks of flats and houses with integral garages alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
For HMO landlords in Heanor, fire door work often follows a licence application or a council inspection. We can price an HMO in Heanor directly from the council's schedule of works and give you evidence to send back.
Fitting around tenants
HMO work happens in people's homes. We agree access with you and your tenants, work room by room, and leave every bedroom lockable at the end of the day. Where thumb-turn locks are needed so occupants can get out without a key, we fit ones that are covered by the door's evidence.
As standard, the work covers:
- Photo record for licensing and inspections
- Survey of bedroom, kitchen and stair doors
- Self-closers set to close without slamming
- FD30 or FD30S doors or doorsets
