An HMO fire door is a certified door set, usually rated FD30S, that holds back fire and smoke for about 30 minutes when closed. Landlords in Irvine (KA11 and KA12) usually come to us with a council letter, a fire risk assessment or a house they have just bought. We price from whichever you have.

Which rules apply in Irvine?
Here is what usually applies to a Irvine job of this kind. It is general information rather than legal advice, and the council’s written HMO standards have the final detail.
- Councils set HMO fire standards through licence conditions, often including emergency lighting in larger HMOs.
- Every HMO needs a council licence: 3 or more people who are not all from one or two families, sharing basic amenities. Licences last up to 3 years.
- Landlords must also be on the Scottish landlord register, renewed every 3 years.

Only if the door itself is capable of the rating, which most standard internal doors are not. A certified door set is usually the reliable route.
Which postcodes in Irvine do you work in?
All of them, including KA11 and KA12, and the surrounding parts of North Ayrshire.
Where do I check the HMO rules for an address in Irvine?
With the local council for the address. Scottish councils set their own HMO licence standards and planning policies. Every HMO needs a licence, so check the council’s standards before you design the layout.
