Why It Matters Now

The Law Has Changed.
Are Your Doors Compliant?

Nottingham landlords face increasing scrutiny under new legislation. Nottingham City Council runs one of the UK's most active additional licensing schemes. Non-compliance carries serious financial and legal penalties.

Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 — Regulation 10
Quarterly checks on communal fire doors and annual checks on flat entrance doors in buildings over 11m. Responsible persons face prosecution for non-compliance.
Nottingham City Council HMO Licensing
One of the UK's largest additional licensing schemes. Fire door compliance documentation is a mandatory condition for licence applications and renewals.
Building Safety Act 2022
Significantly increased enforcement powers. Fire and rescue authorities can now issue enforcement notices directly to landlords and managing agents.
Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005
Applies to all non-domestic premises and common areas. The Responsible Person must ensure fire doors are inspected and maintained to a documented standard.
75%

of UK fire doors inspected by the FDIS fail to meet current safety standards
