JAT Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 First time on here so please bear with me. I am converting a garage to study and storage area. The garage is a single detached one and I have a side door and have put a window where the door was. There is a partion wall 2/3 of the way down the garage (now a room) do I need to have a fire door and Fire retardent plasterboard as it is not now a garage? Building control say Yes I'm not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil ashdown Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Seems as though Building Control are classifying the building as a garage with an adjacent habitable room. That would be a reason for a self-closing FD30(s) door to be required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 I assume we are talking about a domestic property and is it a detached garage or attach garage also a little sketch would be useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
