A fire door survey is a detailed inspection of doorsets, covering their condition, gaps, hinges, closers, seals, glazing and available certification information. It records defects and recommends repairs or further assessment.
A specialist survey is useful where your fire risk assessment identifies concerns, doors have been damaged or altered, or existing records are incomplete.
Routine fire door checks and specialist surveys serve different purposes. FireBlocked365 provides surveys across Greater Manchester to support fire safety assessment and maintenance planning.
Requirements vary across the UK. In England, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to assess fire risks and maintain appropriate fire precautions, including fire doors.
Fire doors must provide suitable protection for their location and be kept in good working order. The building’s fire risk assessment should identify whether repairs, replacement or further specialist assessment are needed.
For blocks of flats where the top storey is more than 11 metres above ground level, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 require checks of communal fire doors at least every three months, and best endeavours to check flat entrance fire doors at least every 12 months.
These routine checks are separate from specialist surveys. FireBlocked365 provides fire door surveys, maintenance and remedial works across Greater Manchester, helping responsible persons identify defects and maintain clear records.
Responsibility depends on who controls the premises. In England, responsible persons can include employers, owners, landlords, occupiers and managing agents. More than one party may have fire safety duties, and they must work together to meet them.
For common or shared areas, responsibility generally rests with the landlord, freeholder or managing agent. Commercial tenants can also have responsibilities for the premises they occupy.
The relevant parties should establish clear arrangements for fire door checks, maintenance and reporting defects, taking account of the building’s fire risk assessment.
If an inspection identifies defects, the findings should be reviewed with the building’s responsible person and appropriate remedial action arranged. The urgency depends on the defects and the risks identified through the building’s fire risk assessment.
FireBlocked365 provides a written report explaining our survey findings and recommended next steps. We can quote for suitable repairs, maintenance or replacement doorsets, with the scope and timescales agreed before work begins. Keep records of completed work and any follow-up checks.
The frequency depends on the building and its fire risk assessment.
For blocks of flats in England where the top storey is more than 11 metres above ground level, the responsible person must check communal fire doors at least every three months and use best endeavours to check flat entrance fire doors at least every 12 months.
For other buildings, inspection and maintenance arrangements should reflect the fire risk assessment, building use and condition of the doors. Damage or faults should be reported and addressed promptly.
Routine checks do not replace specialist assessment where needed. FireBlocked365 provides detailed fire door surveys across Greater Manchester to identify defects and recommend remedial work.
Our fire door surveys use a 28-point checklist to assess each doorset. Checks cover the door leaf and frame, gaps, hinges and fixings, closers, seals, glazing, signage and available certification information.
After the survey, you receive a written report recording the findings and recommended repairs or further assessment. This helps you prioritise work and maintain clear records. We can also quote separately for suitable repairs, maintenance or replacement doorsets across Greater Manchester.

The duration depends on the number and type of doors, their condition and access arrangements. For example, restricted access or different doorset types can affect the time required.
Therefore, send us your approximate door count, any available floor plans and details of access restrictions so we can estimate the survey duration. In addition, we can discuss arrangements for occupied buildings to help minimise disruption.
