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.

Which rules apply in Shipley?

Fire doors in Shipley must satisfy national law for England, the council’s written HMO standards and, where walls, drainage or fire separation change, the building rules. In short:

  • Fire precautions follow a risk assessment; the LACORS Housing – Fire Safety guide (2008) is guidance, not law, but many councils base their standards on it.
  • Licences last up to 5 years and carry conditions on gas and electrical safety, alarms, room sizes and waste.
  • Smoke alarms on every storey with living accommodation and CO alarms by fixed combustion appliances (other than gas cookers) are required by law.
  • The Fire Safety Order 2005 applies to the common parts of HMOs, enforced by the fire and rescue authority.
