Garage seperation

Hi

I am living in a rental bungalow 12 month tenure.

I am concerned the garage which is joined to side of the building and extends beyond the rear elevation of the building has been sectioned internally into a rear utility room with an external door. A Washing Machine and tumble dryer have been fitted with services through the batton and plasterboard only on the utility side.

The garage has a CU for the bungalow on the bungalow wall. There is an electric roller door on the front of the garage. There is a small metal non fire  trapdoor through the deviding                 ( installed in 2020 and signed) wall to get through in the event of the garage door being closed if the C U trips

I am 19 stone and can't get through the trapdoor any observations?

Should this division between the Garage and the utility room be 30 min fire construction?
