In and around Ilford, fire door work covers everything from hotels to purpose-built blocks of flats. We plan each job around the people who use the building.

What councils typically look for

Licensing and housing officers usually look at bedroom doors, kitchen doors and any doors onto the escape stair. Common requirements include 30-minute doors, self-closers, smoke seals and well-fitted frames. Requirements vary with the size and layout of the HMO and the local authority's approach; our HMO fire door guide sets out the typical expectations.

What you get:

• Intumescent strips and smoke seals
• FD30 or FD30S doors or doorsets
• Thumb-turn locks within the evidence where needed
• Survey of bedroom, kitchen and stair doors

What the rules say for Ilford

In Ilford, 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. Enforcement of fire safety law in Ilford sits with the London Fire Brigade.

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 Ilford 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.
