Fire-door compliance that doesn't disturb your guests.
Bedroom and corridor doors inspected, photographed and tracked, phased around occupancy so rooms stay sellable.
- Door-by-door inspections
- Photographic evidence
- Digital fire-door register
- Defect tracking
- Phased around occupancy
For hotels, aparthotels, serviced apartments and guest houses across London, the East of England and the East Midlands.
Every bedroom door is a fire door, and every one of them is in constant use.
Hotels hold more fire doors per square metre than almost any other building type, and they are operated all day by guests who do not know what they are.
- Bedroom doors slammed hundreds of times a week
- Closers adjusted because guests complain about the noise
- Doors propped open by housekeeping trolleys
- Corridor doors scuffed and knocked by luggage
- Rooms that cannot easily be taken out of service for an inspection
- Brand standard and insurer audits asking for evidence
- No record of which rooms were checked at the last inspection
- Refurbished rooms where the replacement door was never certified
The problem isn't that nobody looks at the doors.
It's proving every one of them was checked, room by room.
One programme. Every door. One place to see what's happening.
Six stages, run in order, on every building we look after.
Inspect
Door-by-door inspection with photographic evidence, carried out by an FDIS-certified inspector.
Record
Every finding linked to the property and to the individual door it belongs to.
Prioritise
Defects categorised red, amber or green, so your team knows what needs attention first.
Resolve
Outstanding actions tracked through to completion, with a fixed price against each one.
Reinspect
Follow-up inspections organised, and completed works re-checked before they are signed off.
Report
Clear documentation at property and portfolio level, ready for whoever asks to see it.
The Hotel Fire-Door Compliance Programme
Phased by floor or wing so rooms come back into service the same day.
-
01
Door-by-door inspection
Every bedroom, corridor and back-of-house door assessed against gaps, seals, hinges, closers, glazing, signage and certification.
-
02
Photographic inspection record
A photograph of every door, dated and filed against the room number.
-
03
Digital fire-door register
One register per property, mapped to your room numbering so housekeeping and maintenance can both use it.
-
04
Defect prioritisation
Red, amber and green ratings, so rooms that need attention are obvious to the duty manager.
-
05
Remedial action schedule
A fixed-price schedule of works per door, so repairs can be planned against low-occupancy dates.
-
06
Reinspection and sign-off
Repairs re-checked by us before the door is closed off on the register.
-
07
Recurring inspection programme
Your annual inspection booked ahead, phased so no floor loses too many rooms at once.
-
08
Audit-ready documentation
A file that stands up to a brand standard audit, an insurer query or a fire officer visit.
Sounds good. Can these people actually do it?
A fair question. Here is what stands behind every inspection.
- FDIS-certified inspectorsInspections carried out by certified fire door inspectors, with the certificate number printed on the report.
- A documented methodologyThe same inspection process on every door: gaps, seals, hinges, closers, glazing, signage and certification.
- Fully insuredPublic liability and professional indemnity insurance in place, evidence available on request.
- Photographic reportingA photograph of every door, dated and filed against that door, not a representative sample.
- Digital documentationA register you hold, in a format you can search, share and hand over.
- Clear defect categorisationRed, amber and green ratings with a plain-English note on what is wrong and what it needs.
Getting started takes three steps.
Your team doesn't need to build the system. We do.
Tell us about the property
Room count, floors, and the dates that suit your occupancy pattern.
We build the inspection programme
We phase the property by floor or wing and agree a route with your duty management, so rooms return to service the same day.
We inspect and report
You receive the inspection record, the defect schedule and your next inspection date, mapped to your room numbers.
We guarantee the part we control.
Our Reporting Guarantee
If your agreed inspection report isn't delivered within 5 working days of the completed inspection, we provide that report at no charge.
And if we miss an agreed inspection date through an error on our side, we reschedule it at no additional charge.
