Hi,
I live in a block of 12 flats built in the early 1970s. Myself and the other occupants of the flats are looking to replace our front doors that open out into a corridor/stairwell (as they now look very dated).
The question I have is, what are the regulations here? I've had a hunt around on the web but cant find any info on fire regulations regarding this. I would assume that they would have to meet some fire safety standards as the stairwell is the only means of escape for the flats at the top of the building. Is this the case, and if so, would the doors have to hold back fire for 1 hour?
Also, for us to be able to change the doors would we be required to get a buildings inspector in?
Thanks in advance, Gavin.
