How a specialist firm examines a fire safety issue

A fire safety check follows a set sequence so nothing is missed. The specialist firm starts at the boundary of the space and works inward, testing each layer of protection before moving to the next.

  1. Escape routes and exits

    The specialist traces every path from the furthest room to the final exit door. They measure widths and check that nothing blocks the way during an evacuation.

  2. Fire doors and frames

    Each door along the escape route is opened and closed. The specialist measures gaps around the edges, checks the hinges and confirms the self-closing device works fully.

  3. Compartmentation lines

    Walls and floors separating different areas are examined for holes. The specialist looks above ceilings and inside service cupboards for missing seals around pipes or cables.

  4. Detection and alarm devices

    Smoke detectors and call points are located and checked against the floor plan. The specialist tests the sound level in rooms furthest from the main alarm panel.

  5. Emergency lighting units

    Battery-backed lights above exits and along corridors are switched off mains power. The specialist times how long each lamp stays lit to confirm it meets the required duration.

If findings conflict, the specialist firm repeats the relevant test before writing the report.
