Hi,
I am replacing the doors in my house. The property is a 3 storey terrace with no loft conversion. None of the existing doors are fire rated apart from the old Garage door, but that room has been converted into a study.
My carpenter noted that if I am replacing the doors then the ground floor doors all need to be fire rated. I was going to replace the existing old Garage door with a fire door, but the rest were going to be replaced like for like.
Having looked at the various building regulations I cannot seem to find any mention of this regulation, unless the property is multi-occupancy, which it isn't as my family are the sole occupants.
Can anyone confirm this regulation and point me to it?
Thanks,
Jon
