Checks applied to every door

Each door was checked against the items below. Items are written by Certledger from the responsible person's duties in England under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, article 17, and the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, regulation 10. Measurements and method reference BS 8214:2026.

No.	Check	What a pass looks like
1	Door leaf	No holes, splits, warping or impact damage; no unauthorised alterations such as added vents, cables or cat flaps.
2	Frame and fixing	Frame secure to the wall on both sides and at the head; no gaps between frame and wall left unsealed.
3	Gaps, head and sides	Between 2 mm and 4 mm, measured at three points on each side and at the head.
4	Gap at the threshold	Within the limit for the door type and its seal; no daylight under a door fitted with a drop seal.
5	Strips and seals	Intumescent strips and cold smoke seals present on every edge they are specified for, continuous, seated in their groove and undamaged.

D1	FD-03, first floor stair lobby	Intumescent strip missing from the head of the frame along its full length. Gap at the latch side 6 mm at mid-height, above the 4 mm limit.	Fit a new intumescent strip to the head groove. Adjust or re-hang the leaf, or fit a lipping to the latch edge, to bring the gap to 2 to 4 mm. Re-inspect the door.

Adjust the closing and latching speed; if the device cannot be adjusted to close the door onto the latch, replace it with a device rated for the door. Re-inspect the door.	Before the door is relied on; within 7 days

Declaration

I inspected the doors listed in the door schedule on 14 October 2026, applying the checks listed on page 2 to each door. The results record the condition of each door at the time of inspection. A door marked fail does not meet one or more checks and the remedial action listed is needed before it can be relied on as a fire door. This report is not a fire risk assessment. It does not transfer the responsible person's duties in England under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 or the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, and it covers only the doors listed.
