Housing Association

Featured Replies

Hi

I have a question in relation to the Fire Door Assessment. 
mine happened on 12 November 2022. My Landlord is a housing association. They responded that my kitchen and entrance doors need to be replaced but they stated I need to wait for 8 weeks. 
my question is: how reasonable the 8 week wait time?

Thank you, Ana

 

It depends on the reason for failure, also realism needs to be taken into consideration - there could be dozens or hundreds of doors to replace. In the grand scheme of things the front door is the most important as it affects the most people.

In the interim even a well fitting standard door will provide some fire resistance (if you keep it shut) allowing escape so it's not as if fire could rip through the premises in minutes.
