<p>Upon the inspection of the door at Phoenix house, we have identified the following issues which are preventing the door from closing. Given the location of the door, which is located in between the main entrance revolving door and the lifts. The action of the revolving door and the lift traveling through the lift shaft, displaces significant amounts of air traveling in separate direction thus creating a vortex which prevents the action of the door closer to be insufficient&nbsp;to close the door when a vortex is present.&nbsp;</p><p>Furthermore we have identified the width of the door is insufficient to close the void between the door and the door frame, which accentuates the effect of the vortex, with a void of 20mm. Thus deeming the fire door null since a seal is not achieved allowing fire to travel straight through given the eventuality. We strongly advise this aspect get addressed given legal requirements. Additionally we have identified the hinges to be dropping and leaking.&nbsp;</p><p>Therefore we propose the following in order to resolve the issues outlined above:</p><p><strong><em>Option 1: Renew the existing faulty/leaking door closer with rail operated door closer with a power size rating of &nbsp;6</em></strong></p><ul><li>Our operatives to remove the existing faulty closer.</li><li>To supply and install a new door closer as listed above.</li><li>To adjust closer in order to ensure effective operation under wind loading.</li></ul><p>Please see cost breakdown below:</p><p>Labour: &pound;450.00</p><p>Materials: &pound;250.00</p><p><strong><em>Option 2: Close the gap between the door and frame:</em></strong></p><ul><li>Fit a new hardwood lip to close the opening between the door and frame.</li><li>Route the new door lip and supply 20mm wide intumescent fire strip.</li><li>Adjust to ensure swift operation.</li></ul><p>Please see cost breakdown below:</p><p>Labour: &pound;660.00</p><p>Materials: &pound;90.00</p><p><strong><em>Option 3: Install Grade 13 Door hinges</em></strong></p><ul><li>To remove existing door hinges.</li><li>To supply and install 60 minute fire rated, grade 13 hinges.</li><li>Adjust door to ensure swift operation.</li></ul><p>Please see cost breakdown below:</p><p>Labour: &pound;330.00</p><p>Materials: &pound;50.00</p><p><em>Please note we strongly recommend all of the above works to be undertaken to guarantee the desire operation of the door and to reduce the likely hood of further maintenance.</em></p><p><strong>N.B.&nbsp;All works to be undertaken out of hours.</strong></p>
