Whether you are a landlord, tenant, or simply curious about fire safety regulations, this blog aims to give you an understanding of fire doors, particularly FD30 fire door specifications, and their essential role in fire protection.

Fire safety is a paramount concern for building owners and occupants alike. When it comes to passive fire protection, compartmentation is a crucial strategy that relies on using fire-resistant barriers to contain fires, limit their spread, and protect lives and property.
For many of us, compartmentation may conjure up the picture of fire doors. Fire doors are, of course, a crucial element of compartmentation. However, there are many more elements to preventing the spread of fire. This guide focuses on essential aspects of fire compartmentation beyond fire doors: fire-stopping in ceilings and walls.

Fire safety in buildings is paramount, and fire doors play a critical role in safeguarding occupants and limiting the spread of fire and smoke. This means fire door surveys are of the highest importance, too, as they are key to ensuring fire doors function optimally.

An international issue, alarm fatigue occurs when a person becomes desensitised to an alarm due to repeated false alarms and as a result fails to react appropriately in an emergency – having potentially fatal effects.
-
More than 2,600 false fire alarms were maliciously activated across England in 2019/20 – disrupting schools and businesses, placing unnecessary strain on our emergency services, and reducing the confidence the general public have in fire alarms.
-
False fire alarms have risen by nearly 30% in just five years at NHS trusts across England; stretching resources, unsettling patients, and disrupting vital healthcare.
-
Disrupting vital teaching time, interfering with crucial exams and causing unnecessary evacuations, false fire alarms remain a troublesome nuisance within the education sector – creating a barrier to learning.
-
Student halls of residence are synonymous with false fire alarms; burnt toast, drunken accidents, or reckless pranks – every false alarm contributes towards the dangerous effects of alarm fatigue.
-
In times of crisis, people look to secure their safety; as the world prepares for “the new normal” it is vital to move from a reactive mind-set to a proactive one, with health and safety at the forefront of people’s minds.
