FIRE DOOR SERVICES

5.2.1 of NFPA 80 states: Fire Door Assemblies shall be inspected and tested not less than annually, and a written record of the inspections shall be signed and kept by the AHJ.  The intent of this requirement is to ensure each fire door assembly is inspected and tested for operation.  In other words, the functional testing verifies each fire door will move to the closed position and remain closed (e.g., latched) as would be required under a fire condition.  It is required that written documentation of these inspections be kept on file in the building and presented to the AHJ (Authority Having Jursidiction) upon request.

5.1.5 of NFPA 80 Titled: Repairs and Field Modifications, states repairs shall be made and defects that could interfere with the doors operation shall be corrected without delay.
