Internal Fire Doors

[Kelly]

Hi

I am renovating a 2nd floor flat in a block to rent. I understand the front door must be a fire door.  What about internal doors?

There is no external fire escape.

Check out https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/fire-safety-approved-document-b vol 1. as you will need Building Regulations approval.

I have recently bought a flat to rent out. It is a purpose built 4 storey block built in 1985. Mine is on the ground floor with 2 bedrooms. All the internal doors are heavy 450mm doors. The all face the internal hallway which leads to the front door exit which is into a communal entrance area. I am replacing the internal doors. Should they all be FD30 because the existing doors all seem to be at least this standard?. Thanks

Yes there should be FD30 doors and this will also meet the latest ADB, see Approved Document B (Fire Safety) Vol 1.
