A failure is not a note. It is work with a name on it.
Approved work becomes a remedial task, or a defect on the fire stopping board — assigned, dated, scheduled and closed out with evidence, and still pointing back at the photograph that raised it.
7-day trial · No card required · Cancel anytime
Follow one remedial from site to sign-off.
Raise it, assign it, book it in, and close it out with the before and after photographs that end up in the Works Completed Report.
What you will see
Turn inspection failures into tracked remedial actions — assign, schedule and close each one out against the door-level evidence that raised it, right through to sign-off.

In this area, Fire Door App can:
- Open a remedial project from an accepted quote, with its tasks seeded from the quoted lines
- Or push every failing door on an inspection straight onto the board in one action, without a quote
- Raise a remedial from a door issue your client reports in their portal
- Attach every failing door in an inspection in one action, deduplicated as it goes
- Assign each task to a person, with a due date, a scheduled slot and an expected duration
- Track five statuses, from pending through to verified
- Record before and after photographs, completion notes, and actual cost against your estimate
- Freeze the failure reason and the gap readings onto the task, so a client’s document cannot drift when the door is next inspected
- Batch assignment emails into digests instead of sending forty separate notifications
- Surface what has slipped through an overdue digest
- Publish an evidence pack for the door, carrying its photographs, certificates and remedial history
- Issue a Works Completed Report — previewed first, and re-downloadable unchanged afterwards
- Attach the certificate your installer issued to the job, so it travels with the evidence
- Run the same board for fire stopping defects
A Works Completed Report and an evidence pack prove what was done, by whom and when — they are not certificates of compliance. A certificate comes from the person or firm that carried out the work and holds the competence to stand behind it. The app is not a certification body and verifies nobody’s competence, so it issues none of its own — attach that certificate to the job and it travels with the evidence.
The way this actually works on a job.
-
01
The work arrives by itself
Nothing is re-typed. An accepted quote opens a remedial project with its tasks already seeded from the quoted lines — or push every failing door on an inspection onto the board in one action. On the fire stopping side it is simpler still: send the failing penetrations to the defects board straight from the survey. All of them keep the reference back to the finding that raised them.
-
02
Give it an owner and a date
Assign it, and the person is emailed. Assignment digests batch the noise so a busy week does not turn into forty separate notifications.
-
03
Book it in
Onto the schedule, with pre-bookings for work that is agreed but not yet dated, install scheduling for fitted work, and a calendar feed your own diary can subscribe to.
-
04
Close it out with proof
Completion assembles the evidence — photographs, certificates, sign-off — into a pack, and the Works Completed Report says what was done across the job.
The parts you will use every week.
Two boards, one idea
Remedials for fire doors, defects for fire stopping. Each speaks its own module’s language; both assign, schedule and close out identically. Only the way work opens differs — a fire door project comes from the accepted quote, a fire stopping defect straight from the penetration.
Priority that means something
Order the work by what the findings actually say, rather than by who shouted most recently.
Overdue digests
A scheduled digest of what has slipped, so nothing quietly ages out of view.
Opened from the quote
An accepted quote seeds the board with its lines already priced at your own rates, so the work starts from what the client agreed to.
Client-visible progress
The portal shows the client where their remedials are without anybody writing a status email.

Who changed what, when, and what the record looked like before — kept in Activity and exportable.
What comes out of it
Closing work out is where evidence is usually lost. Here it is a by-product.
- Evidence pack
- Per closed remedial — photographs, certificates and sign-off
- Works Completed Report
- What was closed across the job, with the proof attached
- Quote
- Priced from the findings against your own rates, and what opens the work
- Schedule
- Calendar of booked work, with an ICS feed
- Assignment emails
- To the person doing it, batched into digests
- Remedials export
- CSV of everything outstanding, by property or client
Questions this area gets asked.
Q01
Do remedials keep the link back to the inspection?
Q02
Can a client see progress without emailing us?
Q03
What about work that is agreed but not yet dated?
The rest of the chain.
Raise one remedial. Follow it to close-out.
Fail a component, price it into a quote, open the work from the accepted quote, book it in and close it out — then look at the evidence pack that assembled itself on the way.
