HMO fire doors in West Bromwich, done to the evidence
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in West Bromwich, we offer HMO fire doors with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Around West Bromwich, converted period houses, purpose-built flats and schools all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
We can price an HMO in West Bromwich directly from the council's schedule of works and give you evidence to send back. Closers we fit in West Bromwich HMOs are set to close and latch without slamming, so tenants are less tempted to disconnect them.
Doors that keep working
HMO doors take hard use: closers get disconnected, doors get wedged and seals get painted. We set closers so they close and latch without slamming, which makes tenants less likely to defeat them, and leave you photographs and product details you can show the council.
What you get:
- Survey of bedroom, kitchen and stair doors
- Intumescent strips and smoke seals
- Self-closers set to close without slamming
- Photo record for licensing and inspections
The regulations behind fire doors in West Bromwich
In West Bromwich, 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 West Bromwich 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.
