Fire compartmentalization through fire walls, fire doors and fire dampers is crucial to the safety of building occupants. Building safety depends on fires not spreading from one area to another. Minimizing the liability of building owners and ensuring the safety of its people requires proof that damper inspections were done and any needed repairs made.

Fire door inspections are most often done in large facilities, including manufacturing and industrial locations, as well as hospitals and university campuses. When done monthly, it’s key to have the inspector efficiently and accurately perform the inspection.  Organizing fire doors in the order most efficiently performed helps and when a typical route may not be done, placing doors into areas avoids missing a door inspection.

When a deficiency is found, a picture documents this and is helpful to pass on to the repair crew, ensuring repairs are done quickly, correctly and cost-effectively.
