Adamport Fire Protection Specialists cover all aspects of passive fire inspections and fire door surveys, for flats & bedsits throughout the UK and Ireland.

Landlords are responsible for the fire safety of their tenants. Whilst there are various governing bodies that oversee the fire prevention of rental flats and bedsits throughout the UK, the goal is the the same (to ensure the safety of tenants).

Landlords or managing agents should carry out fire risk assessments on any property under their ownership or management that is to be rented.

Some of the most common fire risks within flats and bedsits are as follows:

• Poorly fitted, inadequate or broken smoke alarms
• Blocked fire exits or inadequate fire escape signage
• Inadequate emergency lighting
• Fire extinguishers that have not been annually maintained/checked
• Fire exits that are propped open by tenants

It is the responsibility of the landlord or property management firm, to ensure the safety of all tenants.
