Fire Door Compliance for HMOs and Residential Blocks
Sentinel Projects works with HMO operators, managing agents and residential portfolios across Northampton, Cambridge, Oxford, London and the rest of the UK. We get your communal and flat entrance doors compliant before the licensing inspection or the next quarterly check. We are FireQual-qualified and BlueSky-certified.
Compliance before the deadline
We come out, tell you exactly what needs doing to pass, and do the work before your deadline through fire door remediation or replacement where needed. Start with a fire door inspection, and see our guide to HMO fire door cost for what to budget. No guesswork about what the inspector wants, and no scramble at the last minute.
