Stairwell fire doors in Devon: questions
Which rules apply in Devon?
Doors 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?
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.
How quickly can you survey in Devon?
We arrange surveys around your access needs and, where possible, combine visits with other work in Devon. Tell us your preferred dates when you enquire.
Can stair doors have locks?
Only escape hardware that allows instant exit without a key in the direction of escape.
