Risk Assessment Description:

This checklist provides a practical tool for site supervisors, bricklayers, carpenters, joiners, plasterers, painters, decorators, tilers, floor fitters, cladding and glazing operatives to ensure safe installation of fire doors on construction sites.

It addresses key hazards such as manual handling of heavy doors, use of power tools, correct fitting of intumescent seals and hardware, and maintaining clear egress routes. It also ensures compliance with relevant UK legislation and HSE guidance.

Use this checklist for:

  • Verifying permits and method statements before work begins
  • Confirming manual handling risk assessments and training are in place
  • Inspecting tools, PPE and hazardous substances
  • Ensuring correct installation of seals, hinges and hardware
  • Maintaining site safety and emergency access throughout the task

Regularly review and update the checklist to reflect any changes in legislation, site‑specific hazards, or best‑practice guidance.

How to use: Review each question at the appropriate stage – before, during and after installation – and answer Yes, No or N/A. Record any actions required and complete the final sign‑off to confirm compliance.

Fully editable and shareable – customise the questions to your site, download as a PDF and share with your team.

Compliant with: Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992, Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, Fire Safety Order 2005.
