Village Business Fire Safety

Long Stratton's village centre businesses and A140 corridor commercial properties require professional fire door inspections. Our comprehensive service ensures your business premises are fully compliant and safe.

A Growing Village on the A140

Long Stratton sits on the A140 between Norwich and Diss. Its long main street is lined with older houses, shops and businesses, and the village has seen a good deal of new housing, with more planned. That combination of established properties and new development shapes the fire door questions owners here tend to have.

Loft conversions

Adding a room in the roof can turn a two-storey house into one with a floor more than 4.5 metres above ground. At that point Building Regulations normally require a protected stair, which usually means fire doors to the habitable rooms that open onto it. Those doors should be certified and correctly hung, and they need to stay that way. If you are not sure what was fitted, our guide on how to tell if a door is a fire door will help.

New-build flats

In a block with two or more flats, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 require the responsible person to give residents information about fire doors. Flat entrance doors and communal doors only work if residents keep them shut and report damage promptly.

Businesses and Community Buildings

Shops, pubs, offices and workshops along the A140 fall under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and so do schools, surgeries and community buildings. If you run a care setting in or around Long Stratton, our page on fire doors for care homes explains the extra demands those buildings place on fire doors.

Long Stratton is in the South Norfolk Council area, as is our base in Wymondham. We fit inspections around staff, pupils or tenants, check every part of each doorset and give you a photographic report with prioritised actions. If work is needed, we can carry out repairs or install certified replacement doorsets.

Fire Door FAQs: Long Stratton

Does a loft conversion in Long Stratton need fire doors?

Usually. If the conversion creates a floor more than 4.5 metres above ground, Building Regulations normally require a protected stair with fire doors to the habitable rooms off it. Your building control completion certificate should confirm what was approved.

Who is responsible for fire doors in a new block of flats in Long Stratton?

The freeholder or managing agent is usually the responsible person for communal fire doors. Flat entrance doors may belong to the leaseholder under the lease, but the responsible person still has duties that cover them, including giving residents information about fire doors.

Do I need fire doors in my Long Stratton property?

If your Long Stratton property is an HMO, a block of flats, a care home, a hotel or a commercial building, fire doors are almost certainly part of its fire strategy, and the responsible person must keep them in working order under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Houses of three or more storeys and conversions built under Building Regulations may also require them.

How much does a fire door inspection cost in Long Stratton?

What does a fire door inspection in Long Stratton involve?

Our FIRAS-certified inspectors check every part of each doorset: the leaf and frame, intumescent and smoke seals, the self-closer, hinges, latches, glazing and the gaps around the door. You receive a report with photographs, the compliance status of each door and prioritised recommendations for any remedial work.
