Fire door inspections in Richmond
Fire door inspections can be arranged across Richmond upon Thames for residential blocks, riverside flats, offices and managed portfolios where scope and discreet access are confirmed in advance. Bookings often come from responsible persons, landlords and managing agents overseeing varied suburban and riverside stock who need structured door schedules and defect evidence. Reports can include door references, observations, defect notes, priority guidance and photographic evidence where recorded during the visit. Where defects are identified, findings can support internal remedial planning and optional re-inspection after works — they do not replace a fire risk assessment or guarantee statutory compliance.

Compliance Records
Supporting Fire Door Compliance Records in Richmond
Inspection reports can support compliance evidence and remedial planning for Richmond properties, but they do not guarantee statutory compliance and do not constitute legal advice. Responsible persons and duty holders should confirm applicable duties. Fire door inspections do not replace a fire risk assessment.
Where applicable, inspections may follow up actions from a fire risk assessment and can cover communal doors and flat entrance doors in blocks of flats or multi-occupied residential buildings. Regulation 10 duties may apply to certain multi-occupied residential buildings where applicable — this is general guidance only, not legal advice. Not every door requires the same inspection frequency.
Explore our fire door compliance support, flat entrance doors guidance and compliance guidance hub for general information on records, checklists and inspection frequency.
