Fire Door Compliance in Practice

Keepshut London provides certified fire door inspections, remedial works and replacements, supporting Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) actions and compliance under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order across residential and managed buildings.

Supporting Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) Actions

Fire Door Compliance in Practice

Fire door compliance is demonstrated through the condition, installation, certification and ongoing management of each fire doorset as part of the building’s fire strategy. Fire doors must be capable of performing as intended in the event of a fire, which requires correct specification, competent installation and routine inspection. Compliance is not achieved by installation alone, but through verifiable records, evidence of workmanship and documented maintenance.

​

Supporting Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) Actions

Keepshut London supports the closure of Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) actions relating specifically to fire doors. Where FRAs identify defects or non-compliance, we carry out inspections, remedial works or like-for-like certified replacements to address those findings. Our role is to provide the practical, compliant works and evidence required to support the Responsible Person in managing fire door risk.

​

Certification & Third-Party Evidence

All fire door works are carried out under third-party certification, where applicable, and in accordance with tested and approved door assemblies. Certification provides independent assurance that installation and remedial works have been completed competently and within the scope of the relevant fire test evidence. This approach reduces risk and provides confidence that fire doors have been installed and maintained correctly.

​

Compliance Documentation Provided

Upon completion of works, we supply clear, auditable documentation to support ongoing compliance. This typically includes certification, photographic evidence, door identification references and information suitable for updating fire door registers or maintenance records. Documentation is provided in a format that supports future inspections, FRA reviews and audit requirements.

​

Acceptance by Assessors and Authorities

Documentation and certification provided by Keepshut London is routinely used by managing agents, fire risk assessors and building control bodies as evidence to support fire door compliance and audit processes. Our records are intended to assist the Responsible Person in demonstrating that appropriate steps have been taken to manage fire door safety in line with current fire safety legislation.
