Doors to an open walkway – Right to Manage?
We are applying for the right to manage – notice has gone into the freeholder and the managing agent has acknowledged that they know.
We had notices a month ago for an inspection of our flat (as in apartment not actually flat) doors to see if they complied with fire regulations. This will take place this week, our month notice ends on the 18th of March. We have also been warned that if the doors are not inspected, we will face a charge if the assessor has to return. Given that any works will be done under our management (hopefully) do we need to allow the management to continue with their plans up to the end date (18th).
Does anyone know what the regs are for doors to individual flats in a concrete building that opens out onto an open walkway? 1930’s build.
I have other flats in another 1930s block that have very similar doors, and originally we were told to replace them but then told that because they open out onto an open walkway they could stay – different management and a very different attitude as well.
I’ve had a trawl and can find nothing that specifically mentions doors to an open walkway.
