School fire doors in Redruth: how we work

Blocks with a storey above 11 metres also fall under regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022: communal fire doors checked at least every three months, flat front doors at least every year.

Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.
