Fire Door Inspections Dorset | MYLU Fire

Fire door inspections that turn condition into clear actions

Fire doors are safety-critical assemblies rather than simply doors. Their condition, self-closing action, seals, hardware, frame and surrounding opening can all affect how the assembly performs. MYLU Fire provides structured inspections that record visible defects and give property teams a clear basis for deciding what needs attention.

Our inspection approach is designed to produce useful records: clear observations, photographs, defect information and practical recommendations. Where a more detailed technical assessment is required, we identify that rather than overstating what a routine inspection can establish.

What a fire door inspection can look at

The exact scope depends on the building, door type and inspection brief. Typical visible checks can include the door leaf and frame, hinges, self-closing device, intumescent and smoke seals, glazing, ironmongery, alignment, gaps and signs of damage or unauthorised alteration.

• Door leaf and frame condition
• Self-closing device operation
• Hinges and compatible hardware
• Intumescent and smoke seals
• Glazing and apertures
• Visible gaps, alignment and damage
• Photographic defect records

Inspection, reporting and remedial follow-up

Where defects are found, the report can help property teams prioritise remedial action and maintain a record of outstanding issues. MYLU Fire can also support the practical follow-up through remedial work, replacement or maintenance where appropriate.

The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 include specific routine checking duties for relevant multi-occupied residential buildings over 11 metres. The government guidance states that these routine checks are intended to be simple visual checks and do not replace the wider fire risk assessment or other duties under the Fire Safety Order.
