Comprehensive Fire Door Inspections for Shopping Centres

Shopping centres experience high levels of public traffic and contain a wide variety of occupied and service areas. Fire doors can be subject to significant wear, while the complexity of the premises can make consistent fire door management more challenging.

There is no single frequency appropriate for every door. The inspection regime should reflect factors including how heavily individual doors are used, their location and the likelihood of damage. High-use doors may require more frequent attention.

Where they fall within the agreed inspection scope, yes. Fire doors within individual units can form part of the wider fire safety arrangements and should be appropriately managed alongside doors in shared areas.

We assess the door assembly, including the door leaf, frame, hinges, latches, closing devices, seals, gaps, glazing and other relevant components. We also consider the door's general condition and operation.

The defect is recorded within the inspection report along with a recommendation for appropriate remedial action. Depending on its nature, this may involve adjustment, repair, replacement of components or replacement of the door assembly.

You'll receive a detailed report setting out the condition of the inspected doors, identified defects and recommendations for remedial action. This gives centre management a clear record to support ongoing maintenance and fire door management.
