Guest Mike North Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 We are currently inspecting some fire doors in new and existing buildings, the question is that in some legislation I have read that there is a requirement to replace 100% of the fire doors if a certain percentage require replacing, but for the life of me I can not remember where. Can anyone else recall this or can I just carry on and replace individual doors which is what the owners want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 I am not aware of any such guidance but the current guidance is clear Fire safety in purpose-built blocks of flats, if a new door has to be fitted it must be FD30s fire door to the current standards and fitted with an approved self closer. If an existing front door is a well fitting, of substantial construction with an approved self closer then it can be accepted also I would require all door furniture meets the current standards. Consequently I would think to replace individual doors as necessary depending on door inspections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
