An HMO fire door is a certified door set, usually rated FD30S, that holds back fire and smoke for about 30 minutes when closed. Burnley is 19 miles east of Preston. We price fire doors there against England’s HMO rules and the council’s written HMO standards, so work is planned to the standard an inspection looks for. Burnley has a university population, so many shared houses are let to students on yearly tenancies, and summer is the main window for works.
