What gets checked

What a fire door survey covers in Reigate offices and homes

The specialist examines each door leaf and frame for damage, warping or missing certification labels that prove the set was built to resist fire.

Gaps around the edges are measured against permitted limits. A door gap seal inspection near you confirms whether smoke can pass through when closed.

Intumescent strips and cold smoke seals are checked for wear, paint coverage or incorrect fitting that would stop them expanding under heat.

Closers are tested to see if they pull the door fully shut from any angle. This includes a door closer check in Redhill and nearby areas.

A fire door inspection in Reigate means a specialist examines every door leaf, frame, gap, seal, closer and any glazing one by one. You receive a numbered inventory showing each door's location and condition, along with a remedial list setting out what needs attention.

What affects the cost of inspecting fire doors

Every building differs in size, age and layout, so the time needed to examine each doorset changes accordingly.

Number of doors
More doors mean more time spent measuring gaps, testing closers and recording findings on site.
Building type and access
Flats require arranging entry with residents, while offices might need work outside normal hours.
Condition of existing sets
Heavily damaged doors take longer to assess because the specialist must record each fault individually.
Report detail required
A numbered inventory with photographs takes longer to compile than a basic pass or fail summary.

The specialist explains the full cost before any work begins.
