FAQs
Fire Doors & Emergency Lighting in Horley: FAQs
Do you provide fire doors & emergency lighting across all of Horley?
Yes, we cover the RH6 postcode area in full, including Massetts, Lonsdale, Smallfield, Horley Row, Westvale Park.
Who is responsible for maintaining fire doors after installation?
The building's responsible person under fire safety legislation has an ongoing duty to check fire doors — self-closing correctly, seals intact and undamaged. We fit doors correctly at installation and can include periodic checks in a maintenance contract, but day-to-day responsibility sits with the responsible person.
What rating of fire door do I need?
This depends on the building's fire risk assessment and means of escape strategy — commonly FD30 or FD60 — rather than being assumed. We install to the rating specified in your assessment.
Does living near Gatwick Airport affect planning permission in Horley?
Some development types near the airport are subject to safeguarding consultation with the airport operator as part of the planning process. This does not apply to all projects, and we advise on the specific position for your address.
