FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

General Information on Fire Doors

Fire doors contain fire, smoke, and heat for ratings like FD30 or FD60, protecting escape routes and compartmentalizing buildings for safe evacuations. Identify certified doors via edge labels or plugs showing rating, manufacturer, and certifier, plus features like three hinges, intumescent seals, and self-closers—if unlabeled, consult professionals. PPM is essential as daily wear causes failures; regular checks ensure performance and avoid legal issues. Assemblies include leaf, frame, hinges, seals, closers, locks, handles, and fire-rated glazing, all compatible for function.

Legal Requirements and Compliance in the UK

The 'responsible person' (e.g., owner or manager) must maintain fire doors under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, using qualified experts and keeping records. Key rules: Fire Safety Act 2021, Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for high-rises, and BS 8214:2016 for installation/maintenance, requiring documented audits. Non-compliance risks fines, imprisonment, invalid insurance, and liability for harm. BM Trada Q-Mark certification ensures our audited services meet standards, providing evidence for due diligence and tenders.

Inspection Schedules and Procedures

Inspect quarterly in high-rise communal areas, biannually in commercial spaces (per BS 9999:2017), annually for flat entrances, and more often in high-traffic areas based on risks. Checks verify certification, gaps (2-4mm sides/top), seals/hardware integrity, closer function, and overall performance. Competent inspectors hold FireQual or BM Trada accreditations for certified reports. In-house staff can do basic visuals with training, but full compliance needs external experts for impartiality.

Common Maintenance Issues and Solutions

Issues include excessive gaps from settling, damaged/painted seals, faulty closers (not latching), loose hinges, and wedges. Minor fixes like seal/hinge replacement restore compliance if certified; major damage requires full replacement. Replace intumescent seals with compatible fire-rated ones (unpainted, per BM Trada ART 11). Test closers for 5-10 second closure, ≤30N force, no leaks, and alarm-disengaging hold-opens.

Digital Tools and Onetrace Integration

Onetrace tracks PPM in real-time via a mobile app, with photos and compliance docs. QR codes on doors enable quick scans for histories, logs, and images, easing audits. Integrates with building systems via cloud/export for reporting. Vs. paper: Reduces errors, enables trend analysis, offers remote access, and builds auditable trails.

Benefits of PPM Services and BM Trada Certification

PPM extends door life, cuts repair costs, boosts safety, and provides docs for legal/insurance needs. BM Trada Q-Mark verifies quality via audits, building trust for tenders. We offer fixed-cost, tailored contracts with predictable pricing, scheduled visits, and support. PPM proves due diligence through certified reports and logs showing proactive compliance.
