My initial thoughts were that on this KEEP LOCKED fire door a mag lock would not be suitable, as electrical failure would result in it unlocking. I am going to recommend mag lock is removed.

Thanks Neil, so like everything else in the world of fire doors, if the mag lock in question has been tested, fitted and maintained correctly its a potential yes a mag lock lock alone is sufficient. Found this document for a particular model which has been tested. Does the lack of a CE mark have an impact, or is the test data enough? Mag Lock Test report.pdf

I come across lots of doors that have seals on doors and frame that are directly opposite each other or there is an overlap see pic).Is this acceptable and if not what is the approved remedial works/fix?
