When the inspection was done in 2020 it had no evidence it was a fire door, someone had now fitted intumescent strips. The door feels solid but there are no markings indicating it’s a fire door other than the intumescent strip. i guess the answer is that if in doubt report it as not a fire door and let customer prove otherwise?

Just a thought, when inspecting I couldnt see a certificate number or plug to identify the fire door, so is it assumption that although there is a intumescent strip and the door is 45mm but without confirmation from either a plug or certificate number then its reported as its not a fire door? Thanks

Hi I’m carrying out an inspection on a fire door, the previous report states it’s not a fire door but I think it is and looking for guidance.... This is a door to an electrical intake room, it has a fire door keep shut sign (should be keep locked) its 45mm thick (fd30?) and the door stop is 45mm wide. there is a intumescent strip 10mm x 4mm on the hinge side, top and opening side Now there are 2 hinges, neither are marked so I would assume non fire rated and someone has fitted (poorly) a Yale lock on the door, the door hasn’t changed since the last report and I can’t work out why they said it’s not a FD30? thanks
