BM TRADA Fire Door Certification refers to third-party certification schemes that verify the competence of companies in the installation, inspection, and maintenance of fire doors. The most recognised of these is the BM TRADA Q-Mark Fire Door Scheme, which is certified by UKAS and widely accepted by Fire and Rescue Authorities and Building Control Bodies across the UK.
This certification ensures that fire doors are:
- Installed and maintained correctly, in accordance with manufacturer instructions and relevant standards.
- Capable of performing as intended in the event of a fire, preserving compartmentation and protecting lives and property.
- Regularly assessed by independent auditors to maintain high standards of workmanship and compliance.
The Q-Mark scheme includes:
- Fire Door Installation Certification, which confirms that operatives are trained and supervised under a licensed manager responsible for quality assurance.
- Fire Door Maintenance Certification, which validates that Operatives can inspect, repair, and maintain fire doors using approved methods and documentation protocols.
