Pyrostyle Maintenance

Preventative Maintenance Visits

The responsibility for fire safety in a building doesn’t end once fire doors are installed, and just as the smoke and fire alarms in a building, fire rated doors need regular testing and maintenance.

Since 2005, it is a legal requirement under the fire safety regulatory reform that fire doors are “subject to a suitable system of maintenance and are maintained in an efficient state, in efficient working order and good repair”. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in fines and severe cases, imprisonment.

As with any other life-saving product, a fire door should be checked at least every six months or more regularly, depending on the traffic using the door, to ensure it functions correctly and is ready to use.

Preventative Maintenance Visits

Why Should You Choose Us for Your Maintenance?

Our range of Pyrostyle fire rated doors are manufactured to fire safety standards using high-quality materials and as the manufacturer of the doors, the maintenance should be carried out following the manufacturer’s recommendation, as BS 9999:2017 states.

Our team of experts is always on hand to guide you and give you sound and pragmatic advice based on years of experience and successful installations.

The Pyrostyle warranty requires that the doors undergo a bi-yearly inspection by a certified technician who can certify that the fire integrity of the doors has not been compromised by damage, wear and tear or third party modifications.
