Double fire doors in Lofthouse: questions
Which rules do double fire doors in Lofthouse 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.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Lofthouse?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
What does a Lofthouse quote include?
Survey, certified doorset, ironmongery, installation, removal of old doors and a handover pack. VAT is added at the standard rate.
Why does my double fire door not close properly?
Usually the door selector is missing or out of adjustment, or the leaves have dropped. Pairs need the inactive leaf to close first.
