Fire door inspection in Beaconsfield
For owners and agents who look after more than one building and want all the doors in the same format.
Get a priceJunction 2 of the M40 is at Beaconsfield. It is where we come off on the way to High Wycombe.
A building here is easy for us to fit in. A second one nearby goes on the same trip.
Six buildings, six formats
Block A has a gap table with photos. Block B has a two-line email from a contractor. Block C was looked at years ago and nobody can say if the closers were replaced.
Ask which has the most failed doors. You get a shrug.
Same layout every time
Door number. Gaps in millimetres. Photo front and back. Pass or fail. Action.
The fault wording never changes between blocks. "Replace closer" means the same thing in all of them.
A one-page summary goes on top, with doors checked and doors failed for each building.
Old Town and New Town
Beaconsfield has an Old Town and a New Town. Older houses split into flats often have doors from the day of the conversion, and quality varies a lot. Newer blocks tend to have rated doors from the start, and their faults come from wear.
We cannot tell you which you have without looking.
Dates
Over 11 metres, communal doors are checked every three months. With several buildings that is a lot of dates. We keep a diary and tell you before each one falls due.
Who covers fire safety
Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service enforces fire safety. Buckinghamshire Council looks after housing conditions in rented homes. It took over from South Bucks District Council in 2020.
Price
Small buildings start at around £250 plus VAT. For a group we price the lot together and say what is cheaper on the same day.
Questions we get asked
Can you use our checklist?
Send it over. We can add your headings, as long as each door is still measured and photographed.
Do you only do blocks of flats?
No. Houses, offices and shops too, in any mix.
