What HMO fire doors in Droitwich should include
For property owners, landlords and managing agents in Droitwich, we offer HMO fire doors with one team for the survey, the product and the installation.
Buildings in and around Droitwich range from houses with integral garages to care homes and schools. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
Closers we fit in Droitwich HMOs are set to close and latch without slamming, so tenants are less tempted to disconnect them. For HMO landlords in Droitwich, fire door work often follows a licence application or a council inspection.
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.
What you get:
- 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
Which fire door rules apply in Droitwich?
The rules that apply to fire doors in Droitwich 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 Droitwich 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.

Yes. Send us the schedule and we will price each item, carry out the work and give you evidence to send back.

Yes, but they must be able to get out without a key, so thumb-turn locks on the inside are common. The lock must be covered by the door's evidence.
