Demand Better Fire Door Compliance Records
You're legally responsible for fire door safety. When your surveyor uses IgnisTrack, you get audit-ready PDF reports, QR codes on every door, and a digital compliance trail that satisfies enforcement officers and insurers.
Can You Prove Your Fire Doors Are Compliant?
As a Responsible Person, you face personal liability under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The Building Safety Act 2022 requires a digital Golden Thread of building safety information. Paper records and spreadsheets are no longer sufficient.
Personal Liability
The Responsible Person faces prosecution if fire doors are not maintained. You need documented proof of regular inspection — not just good intentions.
Inadequate Records
Most surveyors deliver Word documents or handwritten forms. When an enforcement officer asks for records, can you produce timestamped evidence for every door?
No Ongoing Visibility
A one-off survey report goes in a drawer. You have no way for residents, insurers, or fire officers to instantly verify a door's compliance status on-site.

QR codes stay on every door
Anyone can scan a QR code to verify compliance. Your permanent digital audit trail.
You don't need to download an app or use any software. IgnisTrack is a tool for your surveyor — you benefit from better outputs.
Every Door Gets Its Own Digital Dashboard
Each QR code opens a dedicated web page for that specific door — a live dashboard showing everything anyone needs to know about it. No app, no login, just scan and see.
What appears when you scan a door:
Vital Door Information Available to Anyone Who Needs It
A QR code on every door means the right information is always available on-site — for you, your contractors, enforcement officers, and insurers.
Other Contractors
A joiner replacing a door scans the QR and instantly knows the fire rating, leaf dimensions, thickness, and materials — no need to phone you or guess. They order the right replacement first time.
Fire Safety Officers
Walk the building and scan any door to verify compliance. Instant access to fire rating, inspection date, and status without requesting paperwork.
Insurers
Verify your fire door compliance programme during site visits. Scannable proof that inspections are happening and doors are being managed.
Building Managers & Residents
Check any fire door's status yourself. Know at a glance whether a door is compliant, when it was last inspected, and what it's rated for.
Why this matters for replacement works
When a fire door needs replacing, the contractor needs to know the exact fire rating, leaf dimensions, thickness, frame material, and whether it's a smoke control door. With IgnisTrack QR codes, they scan the door and have all of this instantly — reducing errors, wrong orders, and wasted visits.

Fire Door Compliance FAQ
Am I legally required to inspect fire doors?
Yes. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the Responsible Person must ensure fire doors are maintained in working order. BS 8214:2016 recommends inspection every 6 months (3 months in high-traffic areas). The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 require quarterly checks on communal fire doors and annual checks on flat entrance doors.
What is the Golden Thread and does IgnisTrack support it?
The Golden Thread is the digital record of building safety information required by the Building Safety Act 2022. IgnisTrack provides QR code asset tracking per door, timestamped photo evidence, and 7-year record retention — giving you a permanent digital audit trail for every fire door.
Do I need to use IgnisTrack myself?
No. Your fire door surveyor uses IgnisTrack to carry out inspections. You receive professional PDF reports, and every door gets a QR code that anyone can scan to see compliance status — no login or app required. Simply ask your surveyor to use IgnisTrack.
How do QR codes help prove compliance?
Your surveyor affixes a QR code to each fire door during inspection. When anyone scans it — a fire safety officer, insurer, or building resident — they see the door's fire rating, last inspection date, and compliance status. No app or login required. This provides instant proof of your compliance programme.
Can other contractors use the QR code information?
Yes. Each QR code opens a detailed door dashboard showing fire rating, leaf dimensions, thickness, materials, configuration, and special features like smoke seals or glazing. When a joiner, glazier, or ironmonger needs to work on a fire door, they scan the QR code and have all the specifications they need to order the correct replacement parts — no phone calls or guesswork.
What reports will I receive from my surveyor?
Your surveyor delivers professional PDF reports containing door specifications, BS 8214 gap measurements with compliant/non-compliant indicators, component-by-component inspection results, timestamped photo evidence, and remedial recommendations. Reports are generated instantly from the survey data — no manual write-up needed.
How much does IgnisTrack cost?
There is no cost to you as a building manager. IgnisTrack is paid for by your surveyor (from £49/user/month). They may include the cost in their survey pricing, but you benefit from better reports, QR codes, and digital records at no additional charge to yourself.
