March 28, 20215 yr comment_19669 Based on the last fire risk assessment, I am looking to get the front door on my flat replaced. I would like to ask if it is a requirement that the new fire door that I install is 'signed off'. Or if it is ok to get an installer who can't provide an installation certificate to install it, but will use a certified door and door furniture. I can't find out what the actual official requirements are. Based on what the FRA says, it seems as though as long as the fire door is FD30, it has a self closing device, cold smoke strip and self closer, it meets requirements. Can you please confirm? Report
