Basement flat fire reg.

[Guest Les]

Hi

Can anyone advise, my son has moved into a multiple occupancy 4 bedroom basement flat, the entrance door to the flat from the communal area is a glazed hardwood front door, the bedroom door are hollow core egg box doors. 

As far as I am aware the flat entrance door to the communal area is required to be fire rated, can anyone confirm if the bedroom doors in this type off ocomodation are required to be fire rated.

I look forward to hearing from anyone who can advise.

Flat entrance, this should be a FD30S door, it maybe a nominal door if it gives the same protection. (No holes, approved letter box, 3 hinges, etc)

If the flat is in shared occupancy, then it’s a HMO, and all bedroom doors must be fire rated unless they are living as a family.
