Fire Door Awareness Training

Working together with the National Open College Network (NCON) and the British Woodworking Federation, we are qualified to deliver training on fire door installation awareness. This two-day course is just one of the training programmes we offer that are designed to educate fabricators on UK building regulations.

After the Grenfell tragedy, it's vital that we take every measure to keep buildings and their occupants safe. As such, the government has introduced new laws concerning the competency requirements for installers and fabricators. Housing, healthcare, and education are all sectors that could face significant fines for not complying. Therefore, fabricators need to ensure that their products are up to regulation standard if their products are to be used.

Our aim is to ensure that fabricators fully understand and are compliant with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety Order) 2005. We strive to make fire door safety as clear, comprehensive and jargon-free as possible. After successfully completing one of our courses, delegates will receive a Firequal-approved certificate of achievement that is valid for 5 years.
