Plastic pipe through a block wall, gap all round, no collar. πŸ•ΈοΈ In a fire the pipe softens and burns away, leaving a hole. A tested collar or wrap closes it. 🌐 protestesltd.co.uk/fire-stop… πŸ“ž 01604 696113

Last March's inspection report is still in the drawer. πŸŽƒ The same doors have the same defects.

A maintenance contract closes that gap: a register of every door, a check cycle from your risk assessment, and a route from each defect to a repair. πŸ”§

Scuff marks in an arc on the floor mean a fire door leaf has dropped. πŸŽƒ an uneven gap at the top corner πŸšͺ a latch missing the keep πŸ”§ a door that needs a lift to close πŸ”© 🌐 protestesltd.co.uk/fire-door… πŸ“ž 01604 696113

Cables through a riser slab with nothing sealed round them leave smoke a route up the building. πŸ•ΈοΈ Cobwebs in that gap tell you how long it has been open. 🌐 protestesltd.co.uk/fire-stop… πŸ“ž 01604 696113

Stick-on bumpers, tying it back, or winding the closer down until the door stops latching don't fix it. πŸšͺ A door that won't latch is a bigger fault than a slam.

Uneven gaps round a new fire door are easy to spot from the corridor. πŸŽƒ πŸšͺ gaps wider at the head than the sides πŸ”© hinges with screws missing 🧱 seals left out or cut 🌐 protestesltd.co.uk/fire-door… πŸ“ž 01604 696113

That's the kind of fault we see on walk-rounds: a locked escape route, a closer that doesn't latch, and no record of who holds the key. πŸ”

Light under a fire door is a gap smoke can use. πŸ‘» A painted seal, a closer that won't pull the door shut or a gap at the floor all let smoke through. 🌐 protestesltd.co.uk/fire-door… πŸ“ž 01604 696113

A refit makes the walls look new. The fire stopping behind them might not be. 🧱 A survey finds the gaps, a fix closes them, and the record goes with the job. 🌐 protestesltd.co.uk/fire-stop… πŸ“ž 01604 696113
