How we survey fire doors for properties in Porthcawl.
We examine the door leaf and frame for any damage. We check the hinges to ensure there are no missing screws and that they are correctly CE marked and fire-rated.
Using a precise gauge, we measure the gaps around the top and sides of the door (which must be between 2mm-4mm) and the threshold gap at the bottom.
We check that intumescent seals are continuous and undamaged. We also test the closer to ensure it fully shuts the door from any angle, overcoming the latch.
We leave nothing to chance. Every inspection in Porthcawl is recorded in real-time, giving you full transparency and a complete digital audit trail to prove your compliance.
Each door is assigned a unique digital ID and securely recorded.
