PBD Maintenance visited The Royal Crescent Hotel in Bath as part of a project to replace fire doors. This case study follows the inspection and measuring stage, capturing the team’s journey to the hotel and work on site.

Once a fire door survey identifies that replacement doors are needed, the next step is a dedicated measuring visit. This gives us the information required to order the replacement doors to the correct sizes.

During the measuring visit, we remove the architraves around the door opening where needed to obtain accurate measurements. These details are recorded before the replacement doors are ordered.

The video shows this preparation stage at the hotel. Careful measuring is an essential part of planning the replacement work and helps us establish the dimensions needed for the order.

A look behind the scenes at our inspection and measuring visit to The Royal Crescent Hotel, Bath.

1. Survey and recommendations: we inspect the existing fire doors and explain the work identified, including whether replacement is required.
2. Detailed measuring: we return to take accurate measurements, removing architraves where necessary before ordering the doors to size.
3. Ordering the replacement doors: delivery typically takes around six weeks, depending on the supplier and specification. The confirmed lead time is discussed before installation is arranged.
4. Planning the installation: once delivery has been confirmed, we book a return visit to replace the doors.

This case study documents the inspection and measuring visit ahead of the replacement installation.
