A fire door survey is a vital part of any building’s fire safety strategy, ensuring that fire doors function correctly to slow the spread of fire and smoke. During a survey, qualified inspectors assess the condition of the door leaf, seals, frames, gaps, hinges, signage, and closing mechanisms to confirm full compliance with UK fire safety standards. Even minor defects can compromise an entire fire compartment, making regular inspections essential. Annual surveys, or more frequent checks in high-risk environments, help maintain safety, identify issues early, and ensure every fire door performs as intended in an emergency.
