Have just got back from staying in a four storey SC house with relatives. = All doors had self closers on them, but there were wedges liberally distrib= uted around.
There's nothing in BR which says that the doors cannot have wedges near the= m once the BR inspector has left; but their fire risk assessment should dea= l with it, and incoming tenants should be made aware that doors to the esca= pe route must be kept closed at all times. If the temporary tenants then c= hoose to ignore the clear guidelines, then the owners of the property aren'= t likely to be liable for any consequences.
A proper fire risk assessment might take account of other risks, such as ab= sence of being able to hear distress around the house through closed doors,= which might allow wedges to be used during times of high traffic, but requ= ire them not to be used at quieter times, or perhaps when the kitchen is be= ing used.
