Achieving Clear Oversight of Fire Door Compliance with CCS
Client: Social housing landlord / housing management organisation
​
Sector: Social Housing​
Challenge: Overcoming the Need for Clear, Compliant Fire Door Management
The client needed a practical and reliable solution to manage, check, and record fire doors in line with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations. While there were checks for communal doors in blocks, there was no system in place to demonstrate the status of flat entrance doors prior to using CCS.
​
The building safety manager required a solution that would provide clear visibility, accurate records, and the ability to evidence compliance quickly and confidently to the council, regulators, and auditors.
​
Why CCS Stood Out
After considering available options, the company selected Contactless Check Solutions (CCS).
While there was a similar competitor, CCS demonstrated a genuine understanding of compliance challenges faced by organisations such as theirs. Having confidence in the system and the ability to evidence compliance quickly meant that it was an ideal solution for its needs.
​
CCS provided a simple, effective digital platform to manage fire door inspections across both individual buildings and the entire property portfolio.
Impact
CCS was adopted to fill a critical gap in fire door management. The inspection data can now be accessed at the click of a button, allowing the team to instantly demonstrate compliance for:
​
A single block
Multiple properties
Or the entire housing portfolio
​
Information can be easily exported by email or integrated into other systems, ensuring fast, transparent reporting whenever required.
​
Results
Since implementing CCS, the organisation has achieved:
​
-
Full visibility of fire door compliance, where there was no system for flat entrance doors previously.
-
Instant access to inspection data for councils, regulators, and auditors
-
Improved confidence in audit readiness
-
Simplified reporting, with easy data export and sharing
-
A clear, reliable system aligned with current fire safety regulations
​
The company especially highlighted the value of being able to clearly show exactly where the organisation stands at any moment, whether for one building or across the full estate.
Why Recommend CCS
The Building Safety Manager recommends CCS as a trusted and effective compliance solution, supported by a strong customer service team.
​
“I have found CCS to be an excellent solution as we work to deliver full and transparent fire door compliance across our estate. This is backed up by first-class customer service, particularly Andy and Kirsty”.
​
CCS is recommended because it provides:
Clear Compliance Oversight: Immediate visibility of fire door inspection status at any scale
Ease of Reporting: Quick data export for councils, regulators, and auditors
Regulatory Alignment: Supports compliance with Fire Safety (England) Regulations
Confidence in the Provider: A solution built by people who understand the sector
