    Flat Entrance Door Inspections:
  • New mandatory requirements for inspecting flat entrance doors in buildings over 11 metres are expected to transform maintenance practices across the UK.
  • Follow-Up Obligations:
  • The UK government is exploring regulations requiring fire door inspection companies to validate that remedial works have been completed following inspections.

  • Changes to Regulation 38 of the Building Regulations will increase the responsibility on contractors to provide enhanced fire safety information for building control sign-off.

By offering an end-to-end service, Heron is well-positioned to help clients navigate these changes while ensuring compliance with the latest standards.
