Comprehensive Fire Door Inspection and Maintenance in London
Keeping businesses safe and compliant by regularly checking if fire doors are functioning properly. It’s similar to checking the pressure of a fire extinguisher and testing the battery of a smoke alarm.
At Gunfire Limited, we believe that one of the most crucial fire safety features in buildings is fire doors. Responsible for acting as physical barriers, they slow the spread of fire and the damage it can cause. Let’s ensure they are intact and function effectively when a sudden fire breaks out.

What’s the Function of a Fire Door?
A fire door is a passive protection system engineered with the sole purpose of maintaining strict safety standards. When kept closed, it compartmentalises escape routes and prevents blazing flames and smoke from spreading to stairs, corridors, and other escape routes. When installed and maintained appropriately by specialists, it ensures occupants reach the final exit point safely.
One of the best aspects of fire doors is that they demand no physical activation. They work without an external stimulus. At Gunfire Limited, we ensure these fire-resistant barriers, placed at tactical locations within commercial and domestic buildings, are maintained for safe evacuation. The invaluable time we invest in fire door maintenance and inspections in London slows down the spread of fire. It offers valuable time for the fire rescue team to evacuate occupants to a safe place.
Significance of Periodic Fire Door Surveys Across Properties
Fire doors undergo a lot of wear and tear regularly as they are used by occupants to travel through a building. Over time, they may start to underperform. This calls for fire door surveys in London to ensure the passive protection systems serve their purpose of blocking flames and smoke from spreading to escape routes of a building. At Gunfire Limited, we run routine inspections for the reasons below:
- Compliance with fire safety regulations
- Safety of occupants
- Protection of properties
- Maintain the affordability of door maintenance
- Restoration of peace of mind
