Frequently Asked Questions
How is a scheduled fire door inspection different from a general inspection?
It is scoped to the scheduled cadence and controls that fire door inspectors, facilities managers, fire wardens run, not a one-off handover walk. It prompts leaf and frame, seals and strips, hardware and closers, and glazing and signage, watching for doors that fail to self-close or latch, damaged or missing seals and excessive frame gaps, records pass, fail, or N/A with closing-action note, seal and gap photo and certification label photo on critical items, and raises corrective actions with owners before sign-off. Run in InspectWrk, the record is timestamped and rolls into trend reports so repeat failures surface before the next audit.
What do fire door inspectors, facilities managers, fire wardens check on it?
They work through each checkpoint to confirm fire doors will resist fire and smoke and close correctly, confirm the required controls are in place, and capture closing-action note, seal and gap photo and certification label photo on anything that fails or needs proof. Priority failure modes include doors that fail to self-close or latch, damaged or missing seals and excessive frame gaps. Each checkpoint takes pass, fail, or N/A, and a failed item stays open until the fix is verified.
What evidence does it require?
It expects closing-action note, seal and gap photo and certification label photo on failed or critical items, so findings rest on proof rather than memory. Records support the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and BS 8214, and every photo, note, and sign-off stays attached to the inspection instead of living in chat threads.
What does the fire door inspection checklist cover?
The fire door inspection checklist covers leaf and frame, seals and strips, hardware and closers, and glazing and signage. On each checkpoint, fire door inspectors record pass, fail, or N/A, add a photo on anything that needs proof, and raise a corrective action with an owner and due date. Run in InspectWrk, the inspection is timestamped, traceable to whoever completed it, and exports as a single health & safety report aligned to the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and BS 8214.
What is a fire door inspection checklist?
Quick Answer
A fire door inspection checklist is the structured inspection used to confirm fire doors will resist fire and smoke and close correctly that health & safety teams use to check the key inspection points, assign owners to any failures, and close them with photo proof. Completed in InspectWrk, it is timestamped, works offline, and exports as an audit-ready health & safety report for the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and BS 8214.
A fire door inspection checklist is the structured inspection used to confirm fire doors will resist fire and smoke and close correctly that health & safety teams use to check leaf and frame, seals and strips, hardware and closers, and glazing and signage, capture photo evidence, and track corrective actions to closure. Its job is to confirm fire doors will resist fire and smoke and close correctly. Safety officers use this inspection for fire door to verify fire condition and safety controls, door verification and compliance records and photo evidence, capture photo evidence on every finding, and track corrective actions to verified closure, building the evidence health-safety teams need for ISO 45001, OSHA and the Factories Act.
Why are fire door inspections still chased on WhatsApp?
Fire door inspectors and Facilities managers still miss doors that fail to self-close or latch, damaged or missing seals and excessive frame gaps when rounds are ticked without closing-action note, seal and gap photo and certification label photo.
Without a single inspection record, teams reconstruct the evidence from phones instead of proving the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and BS 8214 readiness.
Before and After InspectWrk
Before InspectWrk
- Toolbox talks, JSAs, and near-miss reports are logged verbally on the radio or on paper at end of shift.
- Fire door checks are ticked on paper without photo evidence per finding.
- Safety performance is visible only after the corrective window has already closed.
After InspectWrk
- Fire door inspectors complete the inspection in the app with photo evidence at the fire door, even offline.
- Managers see open findings, closure status, and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and BS 8214 evidence live on one dashboard.
- Overdue corrective actions escalate automatically so the fix happens before the next near-miss becomes an incident.
Why is a fire door inspection checklist important?
It helps fire door inspectors and supervisors keep health & safety work consistent, safe, and auditable, with the evidence needed for the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and BS 8214:
- Cover the full inspection:structured checks across leaf and frame, seals and strips, hardware and closers, and glazing and signage surface doors that fail to self-close or latch, damaged or missing seals and excessive frame gaps before they reach handover, audit, or the next shift.
- Document health & safety findings with the right proof:capture closing-action note, seal and gap photo and certification label photo on every issue so nothing rests on memory.
- Stop repeat health & safety findings:assign the fix, set a deadline, and escalate overdue actions before the next round comes around.
- Stay audit-ready:keep one timestamped record for the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and BS 8214 you can export instead of rebuilding it from scattered photos and spreadsheets.
What should be included in a fire door inspection checklist?
A complete fire door inspection checklist works through leaf and frame, seals and strips, hardware and closers, and glazing and signage, then records inspection context, scored checkpoints, and evidence with corrective actions:
Inspection context
Record where and when the inspection runs:
- Site, health & safety location, and asset identification
- Inspector, date, and the health & safety areas or assets in scope
- Reference numbers or schedules linked to the checklist
Checkpoints and scoring
Define what each checkpoint verifies and how results are scored:
- Leaf and Frame
- Seals and Strips
- Hardware and Closers
- Glazing and Signage
- 20 fields aligned to the checklist
Evidence and corrective actions
Make every finding traceable and actionable:
- Capture closing-action note, seal and gap photo and certification label photo on failed or critical items
- Corrective actions with owners and due dates for health & safety teams
- Sign-off, completion status, and follow-up notes
How do teams use a fire door inspection checklist?
Follow these steps to run the fire door inspection checklist:
- Fill in the fire door header: inspector, site, date, and areas in scope.
- Work through leaf and frame, seals and strips, hardware and closers, and glazing and signage in order, recording pass, fail, or N/A.
- Attach closing-action note, seal and gap photo and certification label photo wherever a failure or observation needs proof.
