Fire door rules in Chichester

Higher-risk buildings — 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes — also come under the Building Safety Act 2022.

Common questions in West Sussex

How quickly can you survey in Chichester?

We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine Chichester visits with other work in West Sussex. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.

Can you work around tenants or staff in Chichester?

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.

Do you remove the old doors?

Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Chichester.

Do all HMO doors need to be fire doors?

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.
