Premier Technical Services Group Ltd (PTSG) is one of the UK’s leading providers of fire solutions to customers in a wide number of industry sectors – including passive fire services.
Fire Door Safety Week, which is owned and managed by the British Woodworking Federation (BWF), takes place from 25th to 29thSeptember. Its aim is to raise awareness of the critical importance of fire doors in saving lives and protecting buildings of all kinds in the unfortunate event of a fire.
PTSG states on its website that fire safety must be the foundation upon which all buildings are constructed. Fire safety assets should be part of every building’s design and these assets must then receive rigorous regular testing and maintenance, ensuring compliance with the latest industry regulations.
PTSG works with building owners and managers to reduce their risk by providing specialist fire safety equipment and services.
PTSG’s fire door service
PTSG employs LPCB, BM TRADA and Firas certified experts who specialise in the inspection and remediation of internal timber doors and front entrance door-sets. Its certified technicians provide assurance that every aspect of a building’s fire doors is functioning in accordance with fire regulations.
PTSG’s comprehensive fire door inspection service has been designed to meet third-party certification standards, providing assurance and evidence to the responsible person that fire doors perform as they should in the event of a fire, protecting lives and properties. Its certified fire door service provides assurance that fire safety risk is being managed and that its clients’ fire doors and door sets work as intended.
Fit-for-purpose fire doors
To comply with both the Building Regulations and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order (RRO) which say the responsible person must manage and reduce fire risk, independent third-party certification provides proof of the fire doors’ ability to hold back the spread of smoke and fire in the event of fire.
Third-party certification verifies that fire doors have undergone a rigorous audit to prove they are fit-for-purpose and are operating to the same specification and quality as that originally tested. And the responsible person is provided with visibility and traceability of the lifespan of their fire doors including information manufacturer information.
PTSG works with clients from all sectors; this includes working extensively with social housing providers and other public sector organisations to deliver fire door services as well as a range of other passive fire services to ensure social housing residents are as safe as possible in their homes.
