fire door surveys by Accredited Inspectors — Full Written Reports

A fire door survey provides a structured review of the condition, performance, and suitability of fire doors within a building. Unlike routine inspections, surveys are typically commissioned to establish a broader understanding of compliance status, identify trends, and inform future planning.

At Change24, fire door surveys are delivered as a detailed assessment exercise. Findings are presented clearly, enabling duty holders to understand current risks, prioritise actions, and plan inspections, remedial works, or replacements with confidence.

Fire door survey specialists you can rely on

Our surveys are carried out by competent professionals with experience across residential, commercial, healthcare, and managed environments. Each survey is planned to reflect the building type, usage, and management structure.

We focus on accuracy, consistency, and clarity, ensuring survey findings provide a reliable basis for decision-making and ongoing fire safety management.

Why a fire door survey may be required

Fire door surveys are often required where there is uncertainty around compliance, condition, or historic records. They provide a wider overview than routine inspections and support strategic planning.

A fire door survey may be appropriate where:

  • Buildings have large or complex door portfolios
  • Historic installation or inspection records are incomplete
  • Patterns of defects are emerging across a site
  • Refurbishment or change of use is planned
  • Duty holders require a baseline compliance position

Our surveys are proportionate and evidence-based, avoiding unnecessary duplication while providing meaningful insight.

    Review survey scope

    Survey reporting and supporting records

    Fire door survey reports are issued as clear, standalone documents forming part of a building’s fire safety records.

    Where individual fire doors are already subject to inspection regimes or QR-coded fire door records, survey findings can reference those doors to support follow-up actions. Door-level records, including QR codes where applied, remain specific to inspection and remedial processes.

    Where building drawings are available, survey findings may be related to floor plans to provide additional context around door location, escape routes, and compartmentation.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    A fire door survey is a professional inspection of every fire door in a building, carried out to ensure compliance with current UK fire safety regulations. Change 24 Ltd’s certified inspectors assess each door for condition, seal and ironmongery integrity, gaps, alignment, and correct operation, then provide a full written report with clear recommendations for any maintenance, repairs, or replacements required. 

    Change 24 Ltd’s fire door surveys assess the door leaf and frame condition, intumescent and smoke seals, hinges, closers, and other ironmongery, gaps, alignment, and correct operation, as well as compliance with current UK fire safety standards. Every element is checked to ensure the door will perform effectively as part of the building’s fire safety strategy. 

    Best practice and UK regulations recommend that fire doors are checked regularly — at least every six months, or more frequently in high-traffic areas. Routine fire door surveys help identify problems early, keeping the building compliant and safe. Change 24 Ltd provides regular inspection services and uses a QR code system so fire door inspection records, ratings, and due dates are always accessible. 

    Fire door surveys should be conducted by trained and accredited professionals who understand the importance of compliance and safety. Change 24 Ltd’s surveys are carried out by experienced, certified inspectors who are accredited through bodies including UK Fire Door Training Approved Inspector, BMTrada, and Salus Certification, ensuring the highest standards of assessment and reporting. 

    Following a fire door survey, Change 24 Ltd provides a full written report with clear recommendations for any maintenance, repairs, or replacements required. Reports are described as clear, detailed, and easy to understand — designed to help building owners, landlords, and facility managers plan maintenance and stay on top of fire safety obligations. The report explains not just what needs to be done, but why. 

    Fire doors are a vital part of a building’s fire safety strategy, but they only work effectively if properly installed, maintained, and in good condition. Regular fire door surveys ensure every door is checked for compliance with current UK fire safety regulations, giving building owners and managers peace of mind that their fire doors will perform when needed. Early identification of issues through routine surveys prevents non-compliance and potential enforcement action. 

    Change 24 Ltd carries out fire door surveys across a wide range of sectors including construction, commercial and retail, education, healthcare, social housing, student accommodation, and hotels, leisure, and sports. A notable example is their ongoing quarterly fire safety inspections at St George’s Hospital NHS, where they conduct detailed assessments of all 148 fire doors on site during each visit. 

    Contact Change 24 Ltd by calling 0800 654 6212 or via the website contact form. Operating nationwide with a strong presence in and around London, their certified inspectors provide thorough fire door surveys with full written reports and clear recommendations. Ongoing support is also available to help you stay on top of fire safety obligations.
