Fire Safety Regulations
In the wake of the Grenfell tragedy of 2017, the Government brought in new legislation in the form of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022.
This legislation made it a legal requirement for quarterly checks to be carried out on all communal doors and annual checks to be carried out on all flat entrance doors in residential buildings over 11 meters.
Previous legislation in the form of The Fire Safety Act 2021 had also clarified the role of The Responsible Person in managing fire safety and permitted the fire services to take enforcement action against building owners who are non-compliant.
Whilst these two important pieces of legislation will go some way to improving the standards of fire doors across the UK, they also place greater demands on the responsible person to ensure that the fire doors are managed correctly.
