FAQs
Fire Doors & Emergency Lighting in Worthing: FAQs
Do you provide fire doors & emergency lighting across all of Worthing?
Yes, we cover the BN11, BN12, BN13 and BN14 postcode areas in full, including Tarring, Broadwater, Durrington, Goring-by-Sea, Findon Valley, Heene.
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.
Are Worthing's seafront buildings protected?
Many of the town's notable Art Deco and Edwardian seafront buildings are listed or within conservation areas, which affects what external changes can be made without consent. We check this for individual properties.
