Rules and safety
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 makes the responsible person liable for keeping fire doors and compartment walls effective. Fire doors must be installed as tested doorsets, with the right frame, seals, gaps and ironmongery. Fire stopping must use products tested for that exact service and wall type. Third-party certified installers, for example under FIRAS or BM TRADA Q-Mark, give you evidence for your fire risk assessment.

Questions
Fire doors and fire stopping: common questions
Can a fire door be repaired, or must it be replaced?
Minor defects such as seals, closers and small gaps can often be repaired with approved methods. Damaged leaves and frames usually mean replacement.
Who is responsible for fire stopping after a fit-out?
The responsible person for the building. Every trade that makes a hole should seal it, but it is worth having one certified installer check and record the lot.
Will I get records?
You should. Ask for a schedule with photos, products used and locations, so it can sit with your fire risk assessment.
