The Requirement
The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the associated Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 outline the legal obligations of the responsible person. It covers all maintenance of all elements of fire safety provisions within buildings. With reference to In BS 8214 (c.13) and BS 9999 (Annex L), routine inspections of fire doors are highlighted as necessary to maintain fire safety in buildings. TS-UK Fire are certified through third party accreditation under BM TRADA schemes, so you can rest assured that our inspectors have the appropriate fire door qualifications and credentials.
The Importance of Fire Doors
The key to passive fire protection is to contain the fire to a particular compartment or room, giving occupants enough time to escape and the fire service enough time to enter the building and tackle the fire. Designed to prevent the fire or smoke from spreading, a fire door is one of the most important fire safety products on your premises.
However, due the nature of fire doors being used in a functional way on a regular basis, they are at greater risk of damage and abuse, seriously compromising the fire protection in your building. This is why it’s key to ensure regular inspections and remediation, preventing the need for replacement, and more importantly, ensuring your buildings remain compliant.

Fire Door Installation
When it’s not possible to repair a fire door, because damage to its integrity is so severe, or the fire performance certification may limit the scope for repairs and alterations, TS-UK expert installers are on hand.
TS-UK BM TRADA Q mark qualification in the installation of new fire doorsets or remediation and repair of existing fire doors. We follow manufacturer’s installation guidance, global assessments, industry-accepted guidance, and fire door codes of practice to ensure a compliant installation.
Offering a full turnkey compliance service, from survey through to supply, installation and maintenance, our clients can be assured that all fire doors are installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s fixing instructions and test evidence, to ensure that they perform as intended in a fire situation.
Aftercare
Fire doors are in constant use, and this use leads to failures in performance over time. The type of environment, level of use and likelihood of damage all influence how long a door is compliant for after initial fitting (or remediation event). TS-UK offer a service to allow for on-going inspection and maintenance of fire doors, taking into account the usage and subsequent variations in inspection frequency.

What Our Customers Say
On behalf of the whole team we are delighted overall with the new door installation. It has made life easier for our guests and staff alike. The idea originated from yourself and after a couple of years I am very impressed with the works from start to finish. I would reiterate what Ben mentioned about the design process and consideration for our needs. Having both your knowledge together with Ben’s certainly made it all easier for a very non-technical guy like myself. The prompt responses and co-operation with our consultants JH Partners was key to the go ahead and I thought you managed that well on site and via email.
The works were completed with no impact on our guests, the workers were knowledgeable and took into account all factors of the hotel operation during install.
As I said before I am delighted with the outcome, the workmanship and overall service from you and TS-UK.
I would just like to say a big thank you to you and the guys for Installing the door locks at Hardman on Saturday.
Callum and Glyn are a credit to your company. Very professional and very good at what they do. Even when encountering one problem after another, they just knuckled down and got on with it without a word of complaint. No negativity whatsoever.
Brilliant work from your guys!
Just a quick email of gratitude for the engineers you have sent to assist with the new suited locks and handles at our office.
