Even one faulty element could put lives at risk.
Just like a car with many moving parts that needs timely servicing, fire doors also require regular checks and maintenance. Here are five essential checks to keep fire doors safe and compliant:
1️⃣ System Certification – is it clearly marked as a fire door?
2️⃣ Apertures – are vision panels, letter plates or grilles fitted correctly?
3️⃣ Gaps & seals – are they within tolerance and in good condition?
4️⃣ Closers – does the door close fully and securely on its own?
5️⃣ Operation – does it open and shut without sticking or dragging?
