B&B fire door

[Guest Ted]

Hi

I stayed in a B&B last week end and was a little concerned that the fire door at the top of the stairs opened and then blocked my exit from my bedroom. Had there been a fire and other guests were exiting the building from my landing, I would not have been able to get out. Is this legal?

It doesn't appear to be an ideal situation for normal use let alone a fire situation. I would suggest you contact the local fire and rescue service and make them aware of your concerns. For details of all UK FRS's check out http://www.firesafe....rvices-details/
