Explore the following questions to understand your legal responsibilities, regulations, and how our consultancy services can ensure the safety of your residents.
Safeguard Your ResidentsAccording to the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the legal responsibility for fire doors in blocks of flats lies with the person or organisation that has control of the building. This entails installing and maintaining appropriate fire doors to resist fire, restrict smoke spread, and enhance resident safety during a fire outbreak.
Failure to provide adequate fire doors for housing associations could result in government fines exceeding £55,000, imprisonment, and, most critically, residents suffering injuries or loss of life. Our consultancy services, developed since 2009, guide housing associations in understanding and fulfilling their legal responsibilities to tenants.
Housing associations must comply with fire door regulations that include fitting fire doors to flat entrances and all areas leading to a final escape, such as landings, hallways, and stairwells. Additionally, fire doors must be maintained in good repair and efficient working order. Our expertise in fire door safety ensures compliance with these legal obligations.
