Fire door inspections for landlords, managing agents and businesses across Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, Handforth and the surrounding Cheshire East area. Component-level checks, photographic evidence, from £14 per door.
Fletcher Risk Management carries out fire risk assessments, fire door inspections, fire safety training and fire safety consultancy for businesses, landlords and property managers across Wilmslow. We are based in Chester, and Wilmslow is a regular part of our working week. Every job is carried out by an ABBE Level 4 qualified assessor with real sector experience.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person for any non-domestic premises is legally required to ensure a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment is carried out by a competent person. That obligation has been strengthened by the Fire Safety Act 2021 and the Building Safety Act 2022. An outdated or inadequate approach leaves the responsible person exposed to enforcement, invalidated insurance, and prosecution.
In Wilmslow's care settings, fire doors are central to the progressive horizontal evacuation strategy that keeps residents safe, so a wedged or damaged door is not a cosmetic issue.
Professional offices, high-end retail, hospitality and care premises sit among large residential property. Buildings full of clients or vulnerable residents demand a closer look at evacuation strategy than an empty office.
Cheshire Fire & Rescue Service covers Wilmslow and is an active enforcement authority, and the town sits within Cheshire East Council for licensing and building control. We cover Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, Handforth and the surrounding Cheshire East area regularly, and we produce documentation that meets the expectations of the fire authority, your insurer, and any licensing authority with jurisdiction over your premises.
We inspect fire doors across every kind of premises in Wilmslow, and report findings against each door's certification.
