In-depth training for those who install, inspect & maintain fire doors.
Since the Grenfell tragedy, the UK government has introduced new legislation on how fire doors are installed and maintained. However, there are also requirements concerning competency for installers, fabricators, inspectors and maintainers. Housing, healthcare and education are all sectors that demand their fire door installers, inspectors and maintenance contractors to have the suitable qualifications.
Our training courses aim to make fire door safety as clear, comprehensive and jargon-free as possible. Upon completing one of our fire door training courses, each delegate will receive a certificate of achievement.
