  1. The addition of seals to the door is a modification to the door

    The door was designed and constructed to function without seals, by adding seals you have taken it away from the specification, either live with it or replace the doors.

    I would have thought that apart from cross corridors and stair wells there would not be many fire doors in the school

  2. Its sleeping accommodation, I was hoping there was a percentage of failures that would mean that the regulations would tell me to replace all doors instead of making an induvial case to the building owners for each door.  When you look after 1500 buildings with 45000 doors you need all the short cuts you get

  3. I am currently scoping a lifecycle project to replace some defective/none conforming fire doors. At the moment I'm up to 23 (59%) of the doors failing inspection, at what point should I just call it a day and replace all the of the doors in the building.  To make matters worse it is grade 2 listed.
