Stokenchurch is on the M40, at the top of the Chiltern hills, and is the last Buckinghamshire stop before Oxfordshire.

We cannot tell you much that is special about its doors, and we will not make something up. What we can say is what an inspection involves.

What we check

The same as in any building. Gaps around the leaf. The label. Hinges and screws. Seals. Glass. The closer. Every door gets photographed.

What kind of building

A small block of flats, a pub with rooms, a village hall, an office or a unit. Six fire doors or ten, and the report has the same layout as one for a block with a hundred. It is shorter, that is all.

The rule that applies

For most village buildings it is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The person responsible for the premises must keep fire safety measures working, and fire doors on escape routes are among them.

A block of flats over 11 metres would also come under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, with quarterly and yearly door checks. That is unlikely in a village, but measure to be sure.

Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service enforces here. Across the county boundary a different fire service does.

Getting here

We drive up from Luton on the M40, a little way past High Wycombe. One small building is a long drive for a few doors, so if there is a second job nearby, say so.

Photos

Send a photo of each door from both sides, the top edge and the label if there is one. That lets us give a fair price. It does not replace the visit.

Questions we get asked

Do you cover the Oxfordshire side?

Send the postcode and we will say.

Is it worth it for three doors?

The minimum visit charge applies. Another building nearby lets us share one trip.

Got a building full of doors?

Send the postcode and a rough door count. We will come back with a price today.
