The Importance of Fire Safety for Businesses
A fire can happen any time, and some businesses face a heightened risk. Warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and operations handling flammable materials are particularly vulnerable. Fires can lead to devastating consequences, causing extensive property damage, injuries, and even loss of life.
This underscores the importance of proactive fire prevention measures. Implementing adequate protection starts with ensuring your fire doors are compliant and functioning optimally. Fire doors are crucial in slowing the spread of flames and smoke, buying precious time for safe evacuation. Regular inspections and maintenance guarantee they perform as intended.
For businesses with a higher fire risk profile, a comprehensive fire safety plan is essential. This plan should define clear evacuation procedures for the building and provide training on using fire extinguishers and other firefighting equipment.
This revision keeps the core message intact while using different phrasing and focusing on the importance for high-risk businesses

Fire Door Survey Process
When you choose our fire door service provider, you can expect the following during the survey process:
FAQ
Our comprehensive survey, conducted by experts, identifies and addresses specific fire door issues in a compliant way. Plus, you’ll have a clear asset list for proper maintenance. Not every door in your building needs to be a fire door – we can guide you on where they are required.
While a building inspector may sign off a buidling, they may not conduct a detailed inspection of each fire door on-site. The responsibility for maintaining a safe building lies with the responsible person, not the building inspector.
All fire doors should meet minimum requirements for structure, gaps, condition, seals/strips, and ironmongery (depending on their location). Even if they were approved during the initial building inspection, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are compliant today.
When we examine the fire doors we look at:
- Hinges
- Door closer (self-closing devices)
- Door frame
- Fire safety signage
- Panic hardware devices for external final fire exit doors
- Gaps around the doors and threshold gaps
- Door leaf
- Locks and levers/handles
- Intumescent strips and cold smoke seals
- Hold open devices
- Glazing
After, we provide a detailed survey that clearly defines the condition of each door and our recommendations for which parts (if any) need to be replaced.
Before conducting a survey, we request a fire strategy plan or compartmentation drawing for the property. If this information is unavailable, we apply a risk-based life safety approach and use fire engineering judgment to establish the assumed lines of fire resistance, based on building regulations or other relevant design codes
Many fire doors lack original documentation or manufacturer identification. In such cases, our surveyor employs a risk-based approach, assessing factors like door thickness, weight, and typical fire door features to determine if it should be inspected as a fire door. We thoroughly inspect all aspects.
