Q01
What does a compartmentation survey record in the app?
platform
Every item on the compartment line: penetration seals, linear joints, cavity barriers, fire and smoke dampers, fire-resisting ductwork, construction defects, structural protection and fire-resisting glazing. Each is pinned on a floor plan with its tested system, photos and outcome. The survey also records its scope.
Q02
Does this support golden-thread record keeping?
compliance
It keeps a register of every item, with its photos over time, its place on the plan and its tested system. That is the kind of lasting, up-to-date building record the golden thread means. Whether it meets a building’s duties is for the accountable person to judge, not the software.
Q03
How often does fire stopping need to be inspected?
compliance
There is no fixed legal interval for re-inspecting fire stopping. The Responsible Person decides how often, based on risk, plus a re-check after any works that break through a compartment. Set a reminder in months on a survey, and an email goes out when the re-survey is due.
Q04
Does fire stopping survey capture work offline?
platform
Yes, once the survey is open on the device. Log items, take photos and record outcomes with no signal. It all syncs when you are back in coverage, photos too.
Q05
Why is fire stopping inside Fire Door App?
platform
Because the teams doing this work usually handle more than one trade. Fire stopping has its own workspace on the same subscription — same login, clients and team, switched from the top bar. Link a building to its property once, and its page shows the fire stopping beside the fire doors.
Q06
How much does it cost after the trial?
trial
On the Usage plan there is no seat charge — every user is free — and each fire stopping item assessed is £0.75. Survey reports are free and RAMS are £0.75 each. On a Seat plan, from £29/month, all the work is included. You pay for one plan, never both, and it covers all three workspaces.
