Absolutely great
Great video, can I ask - is it just the door for the loft conversation that needs to be a firedoor? Do any of the other doors need to be changed? Sorry if that a silly question? Cheers
What is the floor area size?
If you have hard wired/linked smoke alarms would you get away wth a fire door to the loft? And therefore wouldnt need to change any other door in the hiuse?
No normally they make you change all. But each council seem to have there own rules witch don’t help
Hi, I’ve been told that the steel for my conversion needs to have a fire rated paint applied. I don’t see any benefit for this as there is wood everywhere else in the house!! Is this the case?
Yes it is it’s just the rules I’m afraid.
Is the fire door requirement different for different areas?
No it should be the same set out rules through England. I can’t comment on wales and Scotland as may do it slightly differently as I have heard some regs are different.
Do brand new 3 storey town houses have the same requirements regarding fire doors on all floors. I've been in loads and don't remember them having fire doors everywhere. If not then why are loft conversions different, I mean what's the difference?
Yes most new houses with 3 floors will have fire doors. But they are very subtle nowadays so blind in well.
Thanks for that. @@djmooreloftconversionspeci458
Why can’t the stair window be opened ?
It’s a safety thing. To stop children or animals climbing out and falling.
