Been asked by a BTL landlord to do some work to bring a small terraced house up to standard.
BCO have specified that the existing door leading to the kitchen should be fitted with intumescent seals and cold smoke seals.
She assures me that the existing door is a fire door, but I'm getting alarm bells ringing.
Two reasons; I thought all fire doors should already be fitted with intumescent seals as standard? And the door doesn't have a self closer of any sort. I thought that should be standard as well?
How do I know its really a fire door?
Not sure what cold smoke seals are either.
Not a job I want really, given the graphic descriptions from my paramedic daughter of the 'house fire, persons reported' calls she attends.
