If you are a ‘Responsible Person’ as defined by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and these labels are fitted to the hinge stile of your fire and escape doors then first and foremost it means you are well on your way to complying with your obligations as for as Section 17 is concerned in as much as you have employed the services of a Competent Person to assist you in identifying maintenance and defects that need to be actioned.
It also means that you have employed the services of a provider who is a member of the only UKAS accredited fire door inspection scheme in the UK and is therefore subject to rigorous auditing of the service they provide which includes not only the inspection process but also audited CPD and inspection of office processes and procedures.

Furthermore it means you have direct access to a secure Cloud based Fire Door Schedule (some would call it an Asset List) which incorporates a leading ‘Dashboard’ system that tells you your compliance score at any point in time. Compliance Dashboard – Independent Fire Safety Services
It allows you to access the Fire Door Schedule and refer to that exact door thanks to the unique ID reference on the label.
It enables you to look at the faults with this or any other fire door in your premises and see them listed in ‘Priority’ order, allowing you to assign resources accordingly.
It tells you that your remedial team, if so authorised, can record any repairs or remedial action whilst still at the door and see the compliance score updated before they leave the area.
Ultimately, we believe these labels show that you are committed to ensuring the fire safety standards in your building are your top priority.
