    Hello, I am in the process of booking a fire door inspection through safelincs. Essentially I would like some clarity as I am receiving conflicting information. 1. Essentially we have a property which is classed as a HMO albeit not licensed. The premises was our family home, we had some work completed back in 2009 and fitted fire FD30 doors throughout. However they did not have any closers, strips or anything else as we were living at the property at the time. The doors do not have a fire rated label however I have found invoices of when the doors were purchased which clearly stated they are fire doors which I have retained. I have also contacted the supplier from whom we purchased the doors and they have said our doors do not have any markings/labels to say they are fire doors. 2. The frame/lining for the doors is MDF/ white oak lining not fire rated. I have had conflicting information. A reputable company have carried out a site visit and said that the frames do not need to be changed in these circumstances only as they are as per the installation guidance provided for the door. They have said they will provide certification once other remedial works are completed to say the doors are now compliant. Does this sound correct?. 3. The other part I am slightly confused about is how and what gaps between the frame and surrounding brickwork or stud wall should be filled with dependent on the gap size can these be filled with fire rated foam, fire rated packers and fire rated sealant?. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Many thanks
