The problem

Reg.10 Compliance Is Costing Managing Agents Time They Don't Have

As the Responsible Person, you carry personal liability for fire door compliance. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 made quarterly and annual inspections mandatory for buildings over 11m. Enforcement increased 124% year-on-year. Most small agents are still tracking it on spreadsheets.

Quarterly deadlines slip through the cracks

With 8–30 blocks on different inspection cycles, a shared spreadsheet is one missed row away from a compliance breach.

Photo evidence scattered across phones and email

Inspection photos live in camera rolls, WhatsApp threads, and shared drives. When the BSR asks for evidence, finding it takes hours.

75% of fire doors fail — creating a remediation backlog

Each inspection round generates dozens of defects. Without a workflow to track them from defect to close-out, jobs stall and liability grows.

Enforcement is intensifying — personal liability is real

The BSR's Joint Inspection Team has conducted 110+ building assessments. Compliance notices, improvement notices, and prosecution are all on the table.

How it works

From Scattered Spreadsheets to Full Compliance in Four Steps

1

Set up your portfolio

Add your buildings with door counts and fire door types (FD30/FD60). FireDoorReady calculates your quarterly and annual inspection schedule automatically.

2

Inspect and record

Use the mobile-friendly inspection form on site. Record pass/fail per door with photos. Results sync to the building record instantly.

3

Track remediation

Failed doors are flagged automatically. Assign contractors, track quotes, and evidence completion — from defect to close-out.

4

Export compliance evidence

Generate inspection reports and remediation summaries for building safety cases, insurance renewals, and BSR correspondence.

Why it matters

Every Building. Every Door. One Dashboard.

Know exactly where every building stands

One dashboard shows inspection status, overdue checks, and open remedials across your entire portfolio. No more hunting through spreadsheets.

Evidence compliance for the BSR in minutes

Inspection records, photos, and remediation trails in one place. Export building safety case evidence without assembling it from five different sources.

Close remediation gaps before they become notices

Every failed door enters a remediation workflow: defect → quote → assign → complete → evidence. Nothing falls through the cracks.

Built for small managing agents, not enterprise

No NFC tags, no hardware, no enterprise onboarding. Add your buildings, start inspecting. Priced for managing agents, not large housing associations.

Common Questions from Managing Agents

Answers to the most common questions about fire door compliance for managing agents.

How often do fire doors need to be inspected in the UK?
Under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 (reg.10), Responsible Persons must inspect all communal fire doors every three months (quarterly) and all flat entrance fire doors at least once a year. These requirements apply to buildings over 11 metres in England. The quarterly cycle means managing agents need a reliable system to track which buildings are due and evidence that checks were completed on time.
What should a fire door inspection checklist include?
A compliant fire door inspection should check: door leaf condition (damage, warping, gaps over 3mm), intumescent strips and smoke seals (present, intact, continuous), self-closing device (closes fully from any angle), hinges (three or more, secure, not bent), glazing (intact, fire-rated), signage (fire door keep shut/keep locked), and frame condition. FD30 doors must provide 30 minutes of fire resistance; FD60 doors must provide 60 minutes.
Who is the Responsible Person for fire door inspections?
The Responsible Person is whoever has control of the building premises — typically the freeholder, managing agent, or management company. For residential blocks, this is usually the managing agent acting on behalf of the freeholder. The Responsible Person holds personal liability for fire safety compliance, including fire door inspections under reg.10.
What happens if fire doors fail inspection?
FDIS data from over 100,000 inspections shows 75% of fire doors fail. Failed doors need remediation: the defects must be recorded, remedial works scoped and quoted, a contractor assigned, and completion evidenced before the next inspection round. The Building Safety Regulator can issue compliance notices, and enforcement action increased 124% year-on-year.
Do managing agents need fire door inspection software?
Managing agents with portfolios of 8+ buildings typically find spreadsheet-based tracking breaks down at scale — missed inspection dates, lost photos, incomplete remediation records. Dedicated software automates scheduling across quarterly and annual cycles, centralises evidence, and tracks remediation from defect to close-out. The cost of non-compliance (enforcement notices, insurance implications, personal liability) far exceeds the cost of a tracking system.
What is the difference between FD30 and FD60 fire doors?
FD30 doors provide 30 minutes of fire resistance and are the standard requirement for most residential buildings. FD60 doors provide 60 minutes of fire resistance and are required in higher-risk locations such as escape routes in buildings over 30 metres, or where the fire risk assessment specifies enhanced protection. The inspection checklist differs slightly — FD60 doors require thicker intumescent strips and the door leaf is typically heavier.
Is FireDoorReady free to use?
