Fire Door Inspection in Dublin

Certified 30-point fire door inspections, BS 8214 repairs and compliance documentation for buildings across Dublin — from a single apartment block to a multi-site portfolio.

Fire door inspectors serving Dublin

Pembroke Fire Doors is based in Ballymount, Dublin 12, which puts our inspectors within easy reach of every part of the city and county — from the docklands and the IFSC to Swords, Blanchardstown, Tallaght and Dún Laoghaire.

Dublin has the highest concentration of apartment blocks, multi-let offices and managed buildings in Ireland, and the fire door failures we find most often here are the same ones fire officers look for: missing intumescent strips, doors that no longer self-close, oversized gaps around the leaf and vision panels with the wrong glazing.

Whether you manage a single block or a portfolio of buildings across the city, we inspect every door set, give you a door-by-door asset register and repair what fails — usually in the same visit.

What the 30-point inspection covers

  • Door leaf, frame and threshold condition
  • Intumescent strips and cold smoke seals
  • Hinges, closers, latches and hold-open devices
  • Gaps around the leaf (3mm ± 1mm) and at the threshold
  • Glazing, vision panels and glazing beads
  • Signage, certification labels and door plugs

Repairs to BS 8214

Our specialist carpenters repair FD30 and FD60 timber fire doors in Dublin: replacing intumescent and smoke seals, adjusting or replacing closers and hinges, correcting gaps, re-glazing vision panels and fitting compliant signage. Minor repairs are usually completed on the inspection visit.

Documentation you can rely on

A door-by-door digital asset register with photographs, pass/fail status and prioritised repairs, plus a compliance summary for your insurer, fire officer and management company — the evidence that your duty under the Fire Services Acts 1981 and 2003 has been met.

Fire door inspection in Dublin — your questions answered

How quickly can you inspect fire doors in Dublin?

Because our team is based in Dublin 12 we can usually offer inspection dates in Dublin within a short lead time, and we schedule around your building’s access arrangements. Contact us with the building address and approximate number of doors for a date and a fixed quote.

How often should fire doors in a Dublin apartment block be inspected?

Best practice, and the standard most insurers and fire officers work to, is a full inspection at least every six months, with more frequent checks on high-traffic doors. We can set up a recurring schedule and remind you when the next inspection is due.

Do you repair fire doors on the same visit?

Yes. Our inspectors work alongside specialist carpenters, so common failures — missing seals, worn closers, hinge and gap adjustments — are repaired to BS 8214 on the day where access allows. Larger works are quoted from the inspection report.

What documentation do I receive after a Dublin inspection?

A door-by-door asset register with a pass/fail status for every component, photographs of defects, a prioritised list of repairs and a compliance summary you can hand to your insurer, fire officer or management company.
