Fire Door Survey
A fire door survey is a systematic assessment and evaluation of fire doors to ensure they meet safety standards and regulatory compliance, identifying any issues that may compromise their effectiveness in the event of a fire.
If you're concerned about your current fire doors, or you're aware that you are due for a fire door inspection, we offer a fire door survey service. We will individually identify all fire doors and conduct thorough fire door checks to determine if maintenance upgrades can be deducted or if new fire-resistant doors need to be installed. We record any defects using the Bolster System.
The system will record:
- Fire doors locations
- Before and After
- Actions required
- Fire door survey date reminders before and after photos of the work and a reminder of when the next inspection is needed.
Our Post-Installation Fire Door Survey
Once the fire door installations have been expertly completed, we extend our commitment to ensuring their ongoing safety and compliance through regular fire door surveys and maintenance. It's essential to note that, as per legal requirements, fire doors must undergo thorough inspections every 12 weeks. To streamline this process and alleviate any of your concerns, we offer a convenient solution through our post-installation inspection service, designed to make future fire door surveys hassle-free.
We proactively schedule and conduct these inspections at 12-week intervals, guaranteeing timely and comprehensive attention to your fire doors, all in compliance with legal regulations for fire door surveys.

What Our Fire Door Survey Can Pick Up On
Fire doors play a crucial role in fire safety, but their effectiveness can be severely compromised if they are damaged or worn. At Element PFP, we recommend regular inspections to identify and address any issues before they put lives and property at risk. Some signs to look out for that mean your fire door may need repair, maintenance, or replacement include:
- Excessive gaps between the door leaf and the frame
- Missing or damaged intumescent strips and/or smoke seals
- Non-fire-rated letter plates or inappropriate ironmongery
- Worn or ineffective door hinges
- Loose or cracked vision panels
- Defective self-closing devices
If you notice any of these warning signs, our experienced team can carry out a detailed fire door survey and provide tailored solutions, from repairs and servicing to full replacement, ensuring your fire doors remain safe, compliant, and ready to perform when you need them the most.

Fire Door Survey FAQ's
The Fire Risk Assessment covers areas in Fire Compartmentation and Fire Doors but this covers only samples of some areas in the building, therefore any defects identified in these areas could be present throughout the building. Having a Fire Compartmentation or Fire Door Survey means we can confirm whether the rest of the building needs any remedial work by surveying all of the concerned areas.
Once we have completed our fire door survey, you will receive an executive summary, which will provide you with an overview of our findings once the survey is conducted.
