When are fire doors required to be kept closed?
Fire doors must be closed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke. It is quite common in shared housing or student housing to wedge a door open, but this can endanger life and is illegal with serious consequences
Do self-closing fire doors have to be installed?
Yes, in most care homes and residential homes, the fire door must be self-closing so that toxic fumes and flames are held back and cannot spread in the event of a fire.
