Fire safety is one of the most important aspects of the design, construction, and maintenance of the built environment. The need for robust inspection and expertise across all property types requires trained and qualified professionals to help ensure the safety of occupants and buildings.
Grounded in best practices, our courses are developed and delivered by industry experts, using our extensive track record of fire research, testing and standards development.
We provide training in fire door inspection, installation, repair, and maintenance, including steel, timber and roller shutter fire doors, enabling individuals and organisations to address skill gaps and enhance their fire safety knowledge.
Fire Door Inspection
Inspection of fire doors is vital to ensure their robustness and integrity is achieved and maintained. A thorough inspection is required to verify that the door and its hardware have been installed correctly to meet the proper standard of protection.

Installation and Maintenance of Steel Hinged Fire Doors
Poor fire door installation can mean that well-manufactured doors fail to provide the required performance in the event of a fire. The installation of a door set is as much a part of the fire resistance test as the door set itself. Alterations to the method of installation must be covered by a test report, an assessment report or an extended field of application report.

Roller shutter fire doors – installation, repair and maintenance
The importance of good roller shutter door installation cannot be overemphasised. Poor installation can mean that an otherwise well-manufactured roller shutter fire door rails to provide the required performance in the event of fire.
