January 19Jan 19 comment_55550 We have a holiday home which is disabled friendly with a ramp to the front door, level access to the back door. Both doors are double doors and wheelchairs can easily pass through. The ramp is very long (has a resting space in the middle) and in need of repair. Do we need a disabled fire exit out of both doors or can we replace the ramp with steps leaving one fire exit for the disabled. The holiday let is a bungalow and sleeps 8 in 4 double bedrooms. Advice appreciated Report
January 19Jan 19 comment_55555 The size and layout may be such you need both exits in which case the ramp should be repaired - after all escape windows can't be used. Also you would be making access to the premises less compliant than when first built or altered which is usually not accepted. Report
