Questions about HMO fire doors in Edinburgh

Is the survey in Edinburgh free?

Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.

Which rules do HMO fire doors in Edinburgh need to meet?

They are specified to the Scottish Building Standards Technical Handbooks and your fire risk assessment or fire strategy. We confirm the rating of each door at survey.

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.

Usually the doors opening onto the escape route — bedrooms, kitchens, living rooms — but not bathrooms in most layouts. Your licensing conditions and risk assessment set the list.
