Completely unacceptable. A recent site visit revealed what I can only describe as disgraceful. A fire door (recently installed) was clearly measured incorrectly and was not suitably sized for the aperture it was installed in - the frame on the hinged side protrudes past the wall by 15mm - this is a huge problem, why? ▶️ An easy route for fire to breach the door set around the frame ▶️ The hinge fixings will be exposed, reducing the time they can hold the leaf in place The problem doesn't cease there. This door has been inspected multiple times since it's installation and was passed every time! With the recent Grenfell report exposing incompetence and blind eyes being turned, this is disappointing to say the least. This post is important to provide a visual representation and example as to what incompetence looks like - Raising awareness to these issues is vital for us all to be able to understand what isn't acceptable and raise the standard throughout the industry. #firedoors #propertymanagement #buildingsafety #facilitiesmanagement #passivefireprotection #activefireprotection #firestopping #healthandsafety #FireSafety #PassiveFireProtection #Compliance

The Role of Fire Doors in Building Safety Fire doors are more than just entryways – they are life-saving barriers. They: ☑️ Contain fire and smoke, preventing their rapid spread. ☑️ Protect escape routes for safe evacuation. ☑️ Minimise property damage, reducing financial and operational losses. Ensuring fire doors are properly maintained is a legal obligation under UK regulations like the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and Building Regulations Approved Document B. Neglected fire doors compromise lives, compliance, and reputations. Prioritise safety – make fire door maintenance a cornerstone of your fire safety strategy.
