Thank you for info most helpful

I own a flat on the 2nd floor which is the top floor at the end of the corridor , each floor has 4 flats, so 12 in total, it was built in the 1970 concrete construction. My problem is last owner fitted a standard front door, not a fire door arguing that being the last flat nobody would be passing the front door in the event of a fire, which turns out to be incorrect , BIG TIME So I have some questions 1, can i get a internal FD30 fire door fitted to the front door of the flat or does it need to a external FD30, whats the difference? 2. i have a professional chippy that has fitted many fire doors before, if he adheres to the door manufactures fitting instructions can i legally get him to fit it.I judge him as competent to do the job, He has good knowledge of smoke strips etc. 3 the original fire doors in the other flats fitted in the 1970's don't have self closers fitted ,should they have ? now Thanks in advance for your help.
