Location
The first step for any fire door work is to identify the current location in the building on the fire strategy.

Once they have confirm this they would conduct the beginning of the recording (location, photo before).

Door & Frame Hung
The global assessment or manufacturers instructions under the ASDMA are followed. Ensuring gaps, frame setup, hinge requirements and all other relevant specifications are followed the door and frame would be hung in situ.

Gap Check
The operatives will commence the checking of gaps, closers and ensure the fire stopping has been conducted following the manufacturers specification to ensure the door meets compliance.
