This measures the certification record of a fire door register. Enter the doors on the register, the doors with a certificate or label on file, the certificates or installer sign-offs expiring this year, the minutes it takes to trace one missing certificate and the loaded rate of the person tracing, and the page returns the doors with no certificate, the coverage as a percentage, the hours and the cost to trace the gap and the renewals to diarise. A door's certificate is the evidence it was the door it was sold as; this is the size of the gap, from your own figures.
A door with no certificate is a question the inspector will ask
Eighty-four doors with sixty-one certificates on file is twenty-three doors nobody can currently evidence. The page prints the gap and the coverage so the register carries an honest figure, and so the tracing work is a task with a size rather than a worry.
Tracing is hours, and the hours have a rate
Finding the installer, the invoice, the label under the paint or the manufacturer's record takes minutes per door that add up. The page prices the tracing at your rate so the decision between tracing a certificate and having the door inspected as unknown is made with the cost in view.
Renewals are dates, and dates are reminders
Installer sign-offs, maintenance contracts and inspection intervals expire. The page counts the renewals this year; Pro puts each date on the door and reminds the person who owes it, so the certification record does not decay between surveys.
Fire door certification record: common questions
Is this a free fire door certification record?
Yes: the gap, the coverage, the tracing hours and cost and the renewals are computed here for free with no account, and you can print the record. DoorsetBook Pro keeps each certificate against its door with the expiry date and the reminder.
What counts as certification for a fire door?
The evidence that the doorset is what it is recorded as: the manufacturer's certificate or label, the installer's sign-off, or the third-party scheme label on the door. The page counts what is on file; what is acceptable in your case is for the competent person and the fire authority.
What if a door's certificate cannot be traced?
The door goes on the register as unevidenced and is assessed by a competent person, which is a survey and inspection question rather than a paperwork one. The page prints the number of doors in that position so the assessment is scheduled.
