For facilities, H&S and property managers
Our commercial fire door compliance in London brings inspections, testing, repairs and records together on one plan. You see the status of every door on site, and you have proof ready for insurers, assessors and the fire service.
Compliance at work
Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the Responsible Person must keep fire doors in good working order. That usually means the employer, landlord or managing agent.
Commercial fire door compliance is about doing that and being able to prove it. When an insurer, assessor or fire officer asks, you need records, not memories.
Different contractors for inspections, testing and repairs leave records scattered. Nobody can say how many doors are compliant today.
We bring it all onto one plan. After every visit, the status of each door is updated, so you can see what is compliant, what is booked and what is at risk.
Hold residential property as well? Our London fire door compliance service can track those doors on the same plan.
Measured commercial fire door testing is often the backbone of a commercial compliance plan.
Who is responsible?
In commercial buildings, the answer depends on who uses and controls each part of the building.
What is included
One service that covers the whole life of your doors, from checks to records.
Every door inspected on a set cycle, based on your fire risk assessment and how busy each door is.
Closing, latching and device tests.
Busy doors serviced before they fail.
Faults priced and fixed, often on the same visit, with your approval.
Every door’s status, updated after each visit.
Records ready for insurers and fire officers.
How it works
Set up once, then run to a schedule.
A survey or inspection of every door on site.
Urgent faults fixed and the register set up.
Inspections, tests and servicing booked for the year.

Your status
After each visit, you get an updated view of every door: how many are compliant, what is booked and what needs attention now.
Where it slips
These gaps come up again and again on commercial sites.
Reports spread across email, drives and old contractors, so nobody can find them when asked.
Faults found but never fixed.
Landlord and tenant each think the other is in charge of the doors.
Inspections slip when staff change.
New tenant fit-outs add doors that never make it onto the register.
Access control never tested on alarm.

What facilities, H&S and property managers ask us.
A yearly compliance plan usually costs £400–£900 per building, before VAT. Inspections cost £20–£40 per door on larger sites, and testing £20–£45 per door. Repairs are priced when found. Larger sites and multi-site plans cost less per door. You get a fixed yearly price for the plan before it starts.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 requires the Responsible Person to keep fire doors in good working order. The law does not set an inspection interval, but your fire risk assessment, insurer and good practice usually do. Keeping clear records is the best way to show you meet the duty.
Usually the employer, or the person who controls the building, such as the landlord or managing agent. In multi-let buildings, several people may share the duty. It should be agreed in writing. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment. Both should make it clear who does what.
Many sites inspect every six months, with busy doors checked more often. Your fire risk assessment may set a different cycle. A compliance plan builds the right cycle for each door into one schedule. Doors with access control or hold-opens may also need testing when the alarm is serviced.
Inspection reports, test results, repair records and details of each door. Keep them with your fire risk assessment. A door register brings them together, so you can find them quickly when asked. Records should show what was checked, when, by whom and what was done about any faults.
Yes. Insurers often ask how fire doors are checked and kept working. A plan with an up-to-date register and records answers that clearly. It can also help at renewal time, as insurers like to see risks being managed. Some insurers ask for proof of fire door checks after a claim, so clear records really matter.
If the officer raises door issues, we price the actions and fix them, then update the register. You have clear proof of what was done and when. If the officer sets a deadline, we plan the work back from it. The register is then updated, so the doors stay on the normal schedule.
Yes. Every site goes on one plan with its own register. You get one contact and a view of all sites in one place. Each site follows the same process, so results can be compared. This makes it easy to see which sites need more attention and plan budgets.
New doors are added to the register after a fit-out. We check them, record their details and add them to the schedule. This stops doors slipping through the net. We can also check new doors before handover, so problems are fixed by the fit-out contractor.
No. We focus on the doors and work alongside your assessor. Our records help them review the doors quickly and accurately. Our records give them clear evidence on every door, which saves time on their review. Many assessors welcome having one clear record to work from.
