Thanks. The block is 100 years old and the kitchen door was not fireproof to modern standards. I hear what people are saying, but the kitchen door is never closed, so it is near useless, being a firedoor or not. So in reality it is a just a nuisance. As I pointed out, the diagram shows no door between kitchen and the flat's main door and and the furthest point in the kitchen was well less than 9 metres. It appears the regs do allow the kitchen door to be removed. Of course smoke and heat alarms will be fitted.
Does anyone agree that it is 'legal'?
