Fire doors play a critical role in ensuring building safety by preventing the spread of fire, blocking smoke and flames, and providing essential escape routes.

In the UK, fire door inspections are necessary to comply with fire safety regulations, protect lives, and safeguard property. Properly maintaining Fire Doors under the BM Trada Maintenance scheme can help ensure that your property passes any Fire Door Inspection/Fire Risk assessments you will have to undergo.

The proper Installation of fire doors can reduce fire spread by up to 75 percent, according to a report from the National Fire Protection Association.

Why is it so important to have a fully accredited Installer carry out Fire Door Installations?

Third Party Accreditation

Installing fire doors with third-party accreditation is crucial for ensuring quality, compliance, and safety. It provides independent verification, demonstrates competency, and reduces the risk of fire-related incidents. By choosing accredited fire doors, building owners and managers can have confidence in the effectiveness and reliability of their fire protection measures.

Quality assurance

Third-party accreditation provides an independent assessment of the quality and performance of fire doors. It ensures that the doors meet the required standards and have undergone rigorous testing and evaluation. This helps to instil confidence in the reliability and effectiveness of the fire doors.

Compliance with regulations

Third-party accreditation helps ensure that fire doors comply with relevant regulations and standards. It provides assurance that the doors meet the necessary safety requirements and are suitable for their intended use. This is particularly important in the UK, where fire safety regulations are strict and non-compliance can lead to legal consequences.

Demonstration of competency

Third-party accreditation serves as evidence of the manufacturer's or installer's competency and commitment to quality. It demonstrates that they have the necessary expertise, processes, and controls in place to produce and install fire doors that meet the required standards.

Independent verification

Third-party accreditation involves an independent body auditing the manufacturer or installer. This verification process ensures that the fire doors have been manufactured and installed correctly, and that the necessary quality assurance measures have been implemented. It provides an unbiased assessment of the fire doors' compliance and performance.

Risk reduction

Installing fire doors with third-party accreditation helps to reduce the risk of fire-related incidents. Accredited fire doors are more likely to perform as intended during a fire, preventing the spread of flames and smoke and providing essential escape routes. This can significantly minimise the potential damage to property and, most importantly, protect lives.

Why should you have your Fire Doors properly Maintained?

Proper maintenance of fire doors is crucial for ensuring their effectiveness in preventing the spread of fire and protecting people and property. Here are some reasons why it is important to ensure fire doors are properly maintained:

Prevent damage: Fire doors are a physical barrier between a fire and a potentially safe area. They slow down the movement of fire and prevent damage. Proper maintenance ensures that fire doors are in good condition and can perform their intended function during a fire.

Protect escape routes: Fire doors are an important part of any building as they are a passive way to prevent fires from spreading. They can protect escape routes from the effects of fire. Regular maintenance ensures that fire doors are functioning correctly and can provide a safe escape route in the event of a fire.

Comply with regulations: Well-maintained fire doors are essential in the protection of buildings, assets, and people. They are a key requirement for every business and must be regularly inspected to comply with fire safety regulations. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in legal consequences.

Reduce fire spread: Fire doors are an essential measure that prevents the spread of flames, smoke, and toxic fumes in the event of a fire. A fire door allows the fire to be compartmentalised, delaying the time it takes to spread from one area to another. Proper maintenance ensures that fire doors are functioning correctly and can effectively reduce the spread of fire.

Minimise building damage: Routinely ensuring fire doors are working properly will go a long way toward minimising building damage as much as possible during a fire. Proper maintenance can help to limit the damage caused by a fire and reduce the cost of repairs.

In summary, proper maintenance of fire doors is essential for ensuring their effectiveness in preventing the spread of fire, protecting people and property, complying with regulations, and minimising building damage. Regular inspections, visual checks, and the installation of self-closing devices are necessary to ensure that fire doors are functioning correctly and can provide a safe escape route in the event of a fire
