Why is fire door compliance important?

Fire door safety aligns your property with UK building regulations. It helps you to avoid considerable government fines. Above all else, fire door compliance saves lives.

Fire doors exist to:

  • Restrict the spread of fire and/or smoke
  • Provide occupants with a quickly accessible escape route
  • Prevent injuries and minimise risk to life

Many fire doors fail to meet these criteria because they are incorrectly specified or installed. Furthermore, a lack of awareness amongst installers and fabric engineers has led to ineffective maintenance. Often, this ends up damaging the fire door's performance even further.

At Fire Doors Complete, we're dedicated to educating others in the nuances of fire safety law. From fire door training, to fire door inspection, to fire safety consultancy, we're here to help building operators and installers gain a comprehensive understanding of how to comply with UK building regulations.

About Us
Emergency Exit

Just a note, as you know, I have studied a LOT but I have to say, I`m about halfway through the video presentation and for all the study I`ve done, this is by far THE BEST training I have encountered 😊 Kudos to you, I don't know how long it took you to compile this course but WOW 😯 I`ll study, re-study then re-study again then read the book and keep taking the test, if anybody wants/needs training I`ll definitely be sending them your way, wish I purchased your course first, (although then I wouldn't know how good your one is 😆) thanks so much.

I would like to thank Neil for the training that he has provided to our Company. His knowledge, experience and expertise on fire doors is exceptional. All who took part thoroughly enjoyed the training and now feel more confident in the maintenance and installation of fire doors and take the knowledge gained into their daily duties.

Just a big thank you following the recent FDC FD Inspectors Course. It was a really worthwhile couple of days where I learnt a lot and developed through practice and professional discussion. The input was well thought out and offered a real move forward after the other courses on fire doors I've undertaken. Thanks for the time taken, really worthwhile.

Dexter Allen

Trust Fire Safety Manager

Thank you. I am new to the world of fire doors and it has been a good learning process for me, so thankyou for your patience with my various questions. I’m sure that now I have a better understanding of how this all works, I’ll be much better equipped to know what I’m looking at and how to proceed post-inspection with any future reports we get you to do.
