nursing home fire exits

Featured Replies

is there a minimum distance for a nursing home bedroom door to be away from a fire exit??

we have been informed we must knock a new door hole out as our bedroom door hole is to close to the fire exit for the resident. it is 2 meters away from the exit.

I've not heard that one before! I'd request them to provide the source (in Government Guidance, not just an assessors opinion) of this requirement.

The only thing I can think of is if your door encroaches on to the final exit door when it is opened, that could probably be solved by hanging the door the other way.
