Here is one entry from a report.

Door 14, second floor corridor. Single leaf, 44mm, label on the top edge.

Hinge side 2mm. Top 3mm. Latch side 6mm. Bottom 9mm.

Closer fitted. Arm bent. Door stops 20mm short of the frame.

Cold smoke seal pulled out on the latch side. One hinge screw does not match the others.

Three photos. Front, back, latch edge.

Action: new closer arm, refit seal, swap the screw.

Every door in the building gets an entry like that. Forty doors, forty entries.

No label

Doors without a label go down as unknown. Painters cover labels. Old frames go in the skip with the label still on them. We write down what we looked at and we do not guess.

The ranked list

At the back is a list of every fault, worst first. A door that will not latch comes top. A scuffed edge with the seal still there comes last.

Where it goes

Send the report to your fire risk assessor, your insurer or a carpenter. If you want us to price the repairs, we use the same report.

It is a record of the day we came and not a certificate. You get it once the invoice has been paid.

Questions we get asked

Is it a fire risk assessment?

No. That is a separate job and it covers the whole building. An assessor can use the door report.

How long is it?

One entry per door, a summary and the ranked list. Thirty doors is an afternoon's reading.
