When it comes to safeguarding a building from the devastating effects of fire, a well-developed fire strategy is crucial. At CFP, we specialise in developing and implementing comprehensive fire strategies tailored to the unique needs of each building
The law requires that fire doors in commercial properties must be inspected at least every six months. Failure to comply not only puts your property and occupants at risk but also leaves you vulnerable to legal penalties. At CFP, we can help.
Fire Risk Assessments (FRAs) are legally required for commercial buildings and are not a one-off exercise. Changes to a commercial building’s layout, use, and even fixtures and fittings can cause an existing FRA to become outdated and non-compliant.
Since October 2023, we’ve seen a raft of changes and improvements to fire safety legislation, and if you’re a commercial building owner or manager you absolutely need to be on top of them – and take corrective action if necessary to ensure your building remains compliant.
The law is pretty strict when it comes to Fire Risk Assessments (FRAs). If you own or are responsible for a non-domestic or commercial building, that building must have a recent, valid FRA that has been passed as compliant by an individual competent in the fire safety field.
Fire Risk Assessments (FRAs) are legally required for commercial buildings and rely on a robust Fire Strategy. British Standards, particularly PAS 911 and BS 9999, guide the development of effective Fire Strategies. Commercial Fire Protection ensures compliance through qualified specialists, aiding in the creation of fire strategies that meet regulatory requirements and enhance safety for occupants and properties.
Navigating the complexities of fire safety laws in commercial buildings can be challenging, particularly with evolving legislation and confusing terminology. Our guide, “Understanding Fire Safety Responsibilities,” demystifies these regulations, focusing on the key roles of the Responsible Person and dutyholders. It explains who is responsible for fire safety under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 in England and Wales, how to identify these key parties, and what their responsibilities entail.
