CPC helps property managers' evidence that fire doors are being checked, monitored and acted on in line with legislation, FRAs and building-specific risk. *Our experts in the field have tested more than **250,000 fire doors*** ***[![Community Property Care (3)](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Community%20Property%20Care%20(3).webp?width=87&height=87&name=Community%20Property%20Care%20(3).webp)](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hubfs/Community%20Property%20Care%20(3).webp) [View Certificate](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hubfs/Community%20Property%20Care%20FDIN%20Certificate%20April%202026.pdf)*** ## Why fire door inspections matter It is a requirement of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 that, depending on the height of the building, all fire doors are inspected every quarter by a competent person. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, Responsible Persons for residential buildings are legally required to ensure fire doors are routinely inspected by a competent person, with inspection frequencies depending on the height and type of the building. Fire doors are designed to: - Slow the spread of fire - Protect escape routes - Support compartmentation - Improve occupant safety If fire doors fail, the consequences can be significant for both safety and legal compliance.

In England, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 introduced specific requirements for multi-occupied residential buildings over 11 metres, including quarterly checks of communal fire doors and best-endeavour annual checks of flat entrance doors. Across England and Wales, the Fire Safety Act 2021 clarified that the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies to the structure, external walls, common parts and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings. This means these elements should be considered as part of the Fire Risk Assessment. In Wales, the Building Safety (Wales) Act 2026 introduces a wider building safety regime, with a strong focus on safety, accountability and resident voice. As expectations continue to develop, clear inspection records, competent assessment and evidence-led action will become increasingly important for managing agents and Responsible Persons. CPC supports property managers by carrying out structured fire door inspections where statutory inspection requirements apply, and also where Fire Risk Assessments recommend further inspection or monitoring. This may include buildings below 11 metres where the risk profile, door condition, resident needs or previous findings justify a more detailed approach. ## Why property managers choose CPC #### Compliance-led approach #### Experts in the field with more than 250,000 fire doors tested #### Independently certified competence #### Detailed inspections #### Integrated support services #### National operational capability ## Common issues identified during inspections Typical problems identified include: Incorrect gaps around doors Incorrect gaps around doors Damaged seals Damaged seals Faulty self-closing devices Faulty self-closing devices Poor installation Poor installation Damaged frames Damaged frames Missing or unsuitable hardware Missing or unsuitable hardware Many issues develop gradually and are not identified without specialist inspections. ## What happens if problems are missed?

Frequency depends on the building type, usage, and compliance requirements. As a minimum, all fire doors should be tested every year and in many cases, every 3 months. Inspection frequency depends on the type, height and use of the building, alongside fire safety legislation and risk assessment requirements. As a minimum, fire doors should be inspected annually by a competent person, although in many residential and higher-risk buildings, communal fire doors are required to undergo quarterly inspections. Where there is any uncertainty regarding the required inspection frequency, this should be determined by a suitably qualified Fire Risk Assessor as part of the building’s fire risk assessment. A Fire Door Inspector should not independently determine or recommend inspection frequencies outside of the findings and requirements identified within the fire risk assessment process. Do inspections include reporting? Yes. Structured reporting per door and for the site forms part of the service.  What happens if problems are identified? Depending on the severity of the issue, recommendations may range from minor adjustments and maintenance through to more significant remedial or replacement works. Where required, findings should be reviewed with a qualified Fire Risk Assessor to ensure appropriate prioritisation and ongoing compliance with fire safety legislation. What does the Inspection report include? Following the inspection, a detailed report is provided outlining the condition of each fire door inspected, including any defects identified, photographic evidence, compliance observations and recommended remedial actions. Reports are designed to help Responsible Persons and Property Managers understand current compliance status, prioritise remedial works and maintain clear audit trails for fire safety records. ##### Trusted by leading property groups ![FIRSTPORT](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Act3%20child/images/FIRSTPORT.webp?width=100&height=24&name=FIRSTPORT.webp) ![SAVILLS](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Act3%20child/images/savills-logo.webp?width=109&height=45&name=savills-logo.webp) ![Vistry Group](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/13.webp?width=109&height=45&name=13.webp) ![Trinity](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/11.webp?width=109&height=45&name=11.webp) ![Sapphire](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/9.webp?width=109&height=45&name=9.webp) ![m](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/14.webp?width=45&height=45&name=14.webp) ![sennen](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/8.webp?width=109&height=45&name=8.webp) ![broadoak](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1-1.webp?width=109&height=45&name=1-1.webp) ![barratt](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/12.webp?width=109&height=45&name=12.webp) ![o&h land](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/4-1.webp?width=109&height=45&name=4-1.webp) ![chaneys](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/2-1.webp?width=109&height=45&name=2-1.webp) ![preim](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/5.webp?width=109&height=45&name=5.webp) ![hegarty](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/3-1.webp?width=109&height=45&name=3-1.webp) ![Remus](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/7%20(1).webp?width=109&height=45&name=7%20(1).webp) ![RMG](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/6.webp?width=109&height=45&name=6.webp) ![Warwick Estates](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/CPC%20-%20Trusted%20by%20logos.webp?width=109&height=45&name=CPC%20-%20Trusted%20by%20logos.webp) ![P](https://www.cpropertycare.com/hs-fs/hubfs/CPC%20-%20Trusted%20by%20logos%20(1).webp?width=45&height=45&name=CPC%20-%20Trusted%20by%20logos%20(1).webp) Testimonials ## What our customers say "I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for the excellent work your teams (John, Trevor, Brian) do every day to keep our estate well-maintained and welcoming for all residents.
