Internal fire doors in flats regulations are a question about two different rules. Where a door inside a flat is required to be a fire door comes from the building's design under Approved Document B, cited below, typically where the flat's own escape route depends on it. Whether it is checked under Regulation 10 is a different question, and the answer is no: the regulation's checks are the common-part doors and the flat entrance doors that lead onto them. The fire door regulations register on this site records what the building's fire strategy requires inside the flats.
Where the design requires an internal fire door
Approved Document B, Volume 1, is the guidance for dwellings, and the building's fire strategy applies it: a flat with a protected entrance hall, or with an inner room, may rely on internal fire doors for its own escape. Which flats and which doors is the strategy's answer, and the register on this site holds it per building.
What Regulation 10 checks
Under Regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, as the Home Office fact sheet cited below states it, the responsible person for a multi-occupied residential building in England with storeys over 11 metres must undertake quarterly checks of all fire doors, including self-closing devices, in the common parts, and, on a best endeavour basis, annual checks of all flat entrance doors that lead onto the common parts. The doors within the dwelling are outside those duties; the record shows the entrance door and the common parts.
Who maintains an internal fire door
The Fire Safety Order applies to the common parts, not to the inside of a private dwelling. The lease or tenancy governs the door inside the flat, and the responsible person's route is the information given to residents: keep doors closed, do not tamper with closers, report damage. The record of that information is the evidence.
What to record
Per building: whether the strategy relies on internal fire doors, in which flats, and what the lease says about them. Per flat entrance door: the checks and the attempts. The regulations register and the inspection checklist on this site hold the two; DoorsetBook Pro keeps them together.
Questions people ask about internal fire doors in flats regulations
Can a leaseholder remove an internal fire door?
If the building's strategy relies on it, removing it changes the strategy; the lease and the responsible person decide, and the register records the reliance.
Are internal flat doors in the annual check?
No; the annual best-endeavour check is the flat entrance door onto the common parts.
Is the register free?
Yes, without an account.
