How is this different from a fire door survey?

A fire door survey focuses specifically on the condition and compliance of fire doors. A broader risk assessment looks at site hazards, controls, and management arrangements more holistically, with fire doors as one important element.

Can risk assessments inform future inspection plans?

Yes. Findings often highlight where inspection frequency, maintenance attention, or remedial planning should increase because the risk profile is higher.

Who typically uses this service?

Landlords, property managers, facilities teams, and other responsible persons use risk assessments when they need a clearer, site-specific basis for prioritising fire-safety action.

Risk Assessments

Site-specific risk assessments focused on practical control.

Our risk assessments help clients understand what hazards are present, where controls are strong or weak, and what actions should be prioritised to reduce fire and life-safety risk.
