Fire Door Surveys in Southport
Fire doors are a critical element of passive fire protection. They contain fire and smoke, protecting escape routes and giving occupants time to evacuate. Our specialist fire door inspectors carry out detailed surveys of every fire door in a building, assessing each component against current standards including BS 8214:2026 and the Government's Fire Door Safety guidance. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 introduced mandatory quarterly and annual fire door checks for multi-occupied residential buildings over 11 metres.

Fire Compartmentation Surveys in Southport
Fire compartmentation is the division of a building into separate zones using fire-resisting construction, including walls, floors and protected routes, to slow the spread of fire and smoke. Breaches in compartmentation are one of the most common and serious deficiencies we find in our assessments.
Explore Fire Compartmentation SurveysWhat we cover
- Visual and intrusive survey options
- Inspection of walls, floors and ceiling voids
- Service penetration assessment (cables, pipes, ducts)
- Fire door integrity within compartment lines
- Photographic evidence of all breaches identified
- Prioritised remediation report
Fire Stopping Surveys in Southport
Fire stopping is the passive fire protection installed around service penetrations, joints and gaps in fire-resisting construction to maintain compartmentation integrity. Inadequate fire stopping is a persistent finding in fire safety inspections, often the result of poor installation practice or subsequent building works that have breached existing measures. All fire stopping must be installed as part of a tested and assessed system supported by UKAS-accredited test evidence.

- Identification of all fire-stopping breaches
- Assessment of existing fire-stopping product suitability
- Service penetration mapping
- Contractor workmanship review
- Specification support for remediation works
