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.

What has been the domino effect of the Building Safety Act 2022 (BSA) on fire safety? This provision introduced a number of important changes to the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, with the intention of improving fire safety. Additionally, the changes came about following the clear and urgent need for reform, especially after the Grenfell Tower fire in 2017. The goal was to ensure the changes tighten up and increase accountability to those responsible for fire safety.

"That was then, this is now." This phrase could have been made for the fire protection discipline. Why? Because buildings change in use, purpose, and layout over time. Compliant then doesn't mean compliant now. At Commercial Fire Protection, we look after many aspects of fire safety compliance for you. Importantly, this includes producing and updating your Fire Strategy, and carrying out the Fire Risk Assessments (FRAs) that shows where shortfalls and issues have arisen. Your building has evolved.

Always consult a fire safety expert before proceeding with any internal walls alterations. When altering internal walls in a commercial building, it’s essential to conduct a fire safety assessment. Modifications can impact fire compartmentalization, escape routes, and the overall fire resistance of the structure. A fire assessment ensures that these changes comply with safety regulations and do not compromise the building’s ability to contain and control the spread of fire. In some cases you might be required to apply for a building consent permit. #FireSafety #BuildingSafety #FireAssessment #CommercialBuilding #WallAlterations #EscapeRoutes #ConstructionSafety #MaxStyle #CommercialRenovation

Are fire doors in your building compliant with UK fire safety standards? Fire doors play a crucial role in saving lives and protecting property in any building. They are designed to withstand the spread of smoke and flames acting as a barrier which gives occupants time to evacuate safely. Having fire doors in your building is a good start but you also need to ensure that they comply with Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. This legislation requires that fire doors in commercial buildings must be maintained in an effective condition, including their seals, hinges and closures.
