Act on your workplace fire risk assessment
Our commercial fire door risk assessment in London checks the doors your fire risk assessment flags in offices, shops and warehouses. We rank each fault by how it affects your escape routes, then price the fix.
Fire door risk at work
Fire risk assessors often flag doors on escape routes, plant rooms and risers. They note the problem but rarely check each door in detail.
A commercial fire door risk assessment goes door by door. It shows how serious each fault is and what it will take to fix.
A fault on a stair core used by hundreds of staff is far more serious than the same fault on a store room.
We weigh each door against how many people rely on it, so your budget goes where it matters most.
Have residential buildings too? Our London fire door risk assessment ranks door risks in homes and blocks as well.
Many sites then book commercial fire door remedial works to clear every action in one programme.
What we weigh up
Each flagged door is judged on what is wrong, where it is and how many people rely on it.
Stair cores and final exits carry the most weight.
Busy floors raise the risk of each fault.
Locks that may not release in a fire.
Plant rooms and stores with things that burn.
Doors that do not shut on their own.
Missing signs and unknown doors.

What facilities managers and employers ask us.
It is a detailed check of the fire doors your workplace fire risk assessment has flagged. Each door is rated by how serious the fault is and how many people rely on it. You get a ranked, priced plan to fix them. It helps you focus your budget on the doors that protect the most people.
Usually £30–£70 per door assessed, with a minimum fee of £350–£650 per site, before VAT. The fixes it recommends are priced separately. The more doors on site, the lower the cost of each one.
The Responsible Person under the Fire Safety Order 2005, usually the employer or building owner. It is their job to deal with door faults the assessment finds. In shared buildings, the landlord and tenants may each be responsible for different doors.
Doors on escape routes, such as stair cores and final exits, usually rank highest. Plant rooms and risers can also be high risk, because they often hold things that burn. Doors on routes used by many people, such as main stairs, carry the most risk if they fail.
Yes, if they do not release when the fire alarm sounds. Staff could be trapped. We check every access-controlled door on an escape route as part of the assessment. If a door fails the test, we flag it as high risk so it can be fixed straight away.
As soon as possible, ideally within days. A stair core door that does not close puts everyone using that stair at risk. Medium risks can be planned over a few weeks. Keep a record of when each fault was fixed, to show your fire risk assessor.
Yes. We can visit before opening, after closing or at weekends, so staff are not disturbed. Building security is told before we arrive.
Many insurers ask how fire risk assessment actions have been closed. A ranked plan, followed by records of the work done, gives them a clear answer. Keeping these records together also helps at renewal time.
No. We focus on the doors and work alongside your fire risk assessor, giving them the detail they need to close out door actions. If you need a new fire risk assessment, your assessor should do that first.
Yes. Each site gets its own ranked plan, but we use the same format for all of them. That makes it easy to compare risks and plan budgets across your whole estate.
