Fire Door Inspection Service

Fire door inspections are an integral part of your building’s overall fire protection system. A properly operating fire-rated door, just like a properly operating fire damper, is a key component to the compartmentalization of a building to stop the spread of deadly fire, smoke and toxic fumes. Your facility is at risk if the fire door assembly isn’t working properly. Fire door inspections ensure your fire doors are safe and in working order during a fire.

Fire Door Inspections

Annual inspections were introduced with the adoption of the 2007 Edition of NFPA 80. The newest standard requires that fire-rated doors be tested for functionality no less than annually and that a written record of the inspection be kept on file for the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). LSS’ protocol is one of the industry’s most detailed. Our team ensures that your fire doors are code-compliant and working properly and provides proof for your AHJ with the best report in the business.
