Great service, knowledgeable technicians. Would use again.
Fire Door Inspections That Keep You Ready for the Fire Marshal
A fire door inspection checks each fire-rated door assembly, on both sides, to confirm it will close and latch in a fire. NFPA 80 is the National Fire Protection Association's standard for fire doors and other opening protectives. It calls for an annual inspection by a qualified person, with written records kept on file. It also calls for acceptance testing after a new fire door is installed and after maintenance work. For the full breakdown, read our guide to NFPA 80 fire door requirements.
You have enough on your plate without wondering which doors will pass. Door Services Corporation inspects every fire door in your building to NFPA 80. We've been keeping commercial doors working for 60+ years.

What's Included in Your Fire Door Inspection
Both Sides of Every Opening
NFPA 80 requires both sides of swinging fire doors to be inspected and tested. We do that for every fire-rated opening. We check the door and door frame, the closer, and the guides and tracks. We also check door clearances, smoke seals and the fire rating label. And we look for anything blocking the door from closing on its own.
A visual inspection is only part of the job. We also make sure each door closes and latches the way it should in a fire.
Inspection Reports for Each Door
We record our findings for every opening. You get inspection reports you can hand to your fire marshal or authority having jurisdiction. File them with last year's report and your compliance paper trail is in order.
A Heads-Up on What's Likely to Fail Next
We point out the doors at greatest risk of future failure. These are usually high-traffic openings or doors that take a beating during normal use. You'll know where to keep an eye out before a problem turns into a deficiency.
Fire Door Repair and Labeling
When a door doesn't pass, we make code-compliant repairs and handle fire door labeling. One team handles your fire door testing, repair and documentation.
What Our Clients Say
Commercial Fire Doors We Inspect
We inspect fire-rated doors in hospitals, schools, offices, industrial sites and public buildings. That includes the egress doors and fire-rated openings your life safety plan depends on.
Won-Door Fire Doors and Movable Fire Walls
Door Services Corporation is factory-authorized for Won-Door maintenance and inspections. That includes FireGuard horizontal sliding fire doors, SteelGuard security and fire doors, and the FireGuard Movable Fire Wall. Learn more about these systems on our fire and security door solutions page. Won-Door systems also need quarterly testing, which we cover on our Won-Door maintenance and inspections page.
Fire Doors From Other Manufacturers
Our technicians work on all major commercial door brands. One inspection can cover every fire door in your building, no matter who made it.
Fire Door Inspection Certification and Who Can Inspect Your Doors
NFPA 80 doesn't name one required fire door inspection certification. It asks for a qualified person who understands how the door's operating components work. Some fire door inspectors also hold a certification earned through industry training and an exam. Either way, you can ask any inspector for proof of qualifications before work begins.
Qualified technicians from our team of 120 certified technicians do our inspections, and we're factory-authorized for Won-Door. We walk you through what we find, so you know what's on the report and why it matters for your building.
Fire Door Inspections for Hospitals and Healthcare Facilities
In health care occupancies, fire door assemblies must be inspected and tested every year under the 2010 edition of NFPA 80. That's the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services requirement. CMS also clarified that non-rated corridor doors and smoke barrier doors fall outside that annual requirement.
A hospital can't close a wing for a door inspection. For 24/7 facilities, we schedule inspections after hours, on weekends or on holidays. We can also line them up with your planned maintenance. See how we support hospital doors.
Fire Door Inspections Across Multiple Sites
Tracking annual inspections across many buildings means juggling dates, reports and vendors. With 20+ locations, Door Services Corporation can inspect sites across your portfolio. Multi-year inspection agreements keep every building on schedule, so no inspection date slips past.
Pair your inspections with routine fire door maintenance under a door maintenance contract and get 25% cost savings with service contracts.
