Question 1

Do I receive a certificate after fire door works are completed?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you will receive compliance documentation following the completion of fire door inspections, repairs or remedial works. Keepshut London is a fully certified fire door contractor and provides certification that meets the requirements of local authorities, fire risk assessors and property managers. This documentation supports your legal obligations under current fire safety regulations and can be retained as part of your building’s compliance records.

Question 2

Can you help with heritage or listed fire doors?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Keepshut London offers a specialist service for heritage and listed fire doors. We understand the importance of preserving the original character and materials of historic buildings while ensuring fire safety compliance. Wherever possible, we repair and upgrade existing heritage fire doors using sympathetic methods that meet conservation requirements without compromising performance.

Question 3

What is Regulation 10?

Accepted Answer

Regulation 10 refers to the Fire Safety England Regulations 2022 and sets out a legal requirement for responsible persons to ensure that fire doors in multi occupied residential buildings are regularly checked and maintained. It requires fire doors in communal areas to be checked at least every three months and fire doors within individual flats at least every twelve months to confirm they are in good condition, operate correctly and remain effective in the event of a fire.

Question 4

How should Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) findings relating to fire doors be formally closed?

Accepted Answer

FRA findings should not be considered closed until deficiencies have been rectified and supported by documented evidence of remediation. This includes confirmation of works completed, photographic records, updated door registers where relevant, and certification aligned with the applicable fire test evidence. Closing actions without documentation may leave compliance exposure unresolved.

Question 5

How much does it cost to repair a fire door?

Accepted Answer

The cost to repair a fire door depends on the condition of the door and the scope of works required to bring it back to compliance. Fire door repairs can cost as little as £60+VAT, depending on factors such as ironmongery repairs or replacement, installation of intumescent seals, door closer adjustments and correcting door gaps. In many cases, remedial works are a cost-effective alternative to full door replacement, which is why a professional inspection is always recommended.
