What the law says in Corby
In Corby, as across England, Approved Document B governs new work and the Fire Safety Order 2005 governs existing premises. Note that Approved Document B is removing the BS 476 fire-resistance test references on 2 September 2029, so specifications are moving to EN classifications such as E30 Sa.

Communal fire doors in Corby: questions
Can you fit just one door in Corby?
Yes — from a single door to a full building. Where possible, small jobs are scheduled alongside other visits in Northamptonshire.
Which rules do communal fire doors in Corby need to meet?
They are specified to Approved Document B (England) and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.
How quickly can you survey in Corby?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Corby visits with other work in Northamptonshire. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Should communal doors be glazed?
Doors across corridors usually need vision panels so people can see who is on the other side. The glass must be tested in that doorset.
