A fire door survey is an inspection to determine whether a door will hold back fire and smoke for a predetermined period.

Some contractors ask third party fire door inspectors to provide evidence that a fire door has been installed to the correct standard.

Older fire doors will not usually comply with current standards. Therefore some managers require that such doors are brought up to a higher standard. For example the door may be upgraded to include combined smoke and heat seals. Other doors may have been repaired so no longer can be passed as “certified fire doors” A fire door survey will look at such issues such as hinges, fire glass, heat and smoke seals, self closers, frames and door rebates etc.

A fire door surveyor will examine the door to determine whether the door will resist fire for the required timescale.

There should sufficient fire marshals in a workplace to implement the fire evacuation plan.

Some buildings may be small and also have a simple layout. In such cases the number will be minimal. Allow for one fire marshal for every 60 seconds of search time and also an appropriate number of deputy marshals.

In larger more complex buildings more marshal may be required. Again, allow for one fire marshal for every 60 seconds of search time plus deputies. A manager may also need further marshals for out of hour times or different shifts.
