FIRE DOOR AWARENESS COURSE
Why is it important to learn about fire doors?
Fire doors are "Engineered Fire Safety Devices" that will save lives and reduce the spread of fire IF they are manufactured, installed and maintained correctly. Following a Fire Door Inspectors survey carried out by the FDIS in 2022, 75% of over 100,000 doors surveyed failed the inspection due to a lack of basic knowledge. This course will enhance your knowledge and help you to be part of the improvements within the industry.

FIRE STOPPING COURSE
Why is it important to learn about fire stopping?
Because the pipe and cable penetrations supplying power, water, etc. are mostly hidden in wall and ceiling voids, it's vital they are installed correctly, with the right products and sealed correctly. Otherwise, if there's a fire, the pipes and cables are likely to melt and cause smoke to spread throughout a building and more importantly people may die!
