WHEN REPAIR IS THE RIGHT SOLUTION
Correcting defects without unnecessary replacement

Many issues can be resolved through careful adjustment, component replacement or targeted repair work. Where remedial works are appropriate, Odyssey Fire Safety can correct the identified defects and help return the door to reliable operation.
Repairable Inspection Findings
Corrective work for defects identified during a fire door inspection.
Poor Door Operation

REMEDIAL WORKS
Practical repairs for common fire door defects
Fire door defects can affect how the door closes, latches, seals and performs during everyday use. Our remedial works address individual issues as well as groups of defects identified across a building.
The objective is to correct the defect properly while retaining suitable existing doors wherever practical.
Door Alignment
Adjustment where the door leaf is catching, sticking or sitting incorrectly within the frame.
Closers And Latching
Adjustment or replacement of closers, latches and associated components to improve reliable closing.
Hinges And Fixings

COMMON FIRE DOOR DEFECTS
Small defects can create significant problems
Even minor issues can compromise the performance of a fire door and put people and property at risk.
Look out for these common defects during routine checks and inspections.
detailed reports
Accurate records you can rely on.
Door not
closing fully
Doors must close fully onto the latch without assistance. Check for obstructions or incorrect closer settings.
Excessive or uneven gaps
Gaps that are too large or uneven around the door or at the threshold can affect performance and smoke control.
Loose or damaged hinges
Hinges must be secure and in good condition. Loose or damaged hinges can cause misalignment and failure.
Missing or damged seals
Seals are essential for fire and smoke protection. Check for missing, damaged or incorrect seals.
Faulty locks, latches & handles
All ironmongery must operate smoothly and latch correctly. Faults can prevent the door closing and locking.
Previous poor repairs
Substandard repairs or unsuitable materials can compromise performance and must be put right.
