Commercial door & locksmith service
Scheduled life-safety service
Plan a commercial fire door inspection request. Provider qualifications, reporting and corrective scope must be confirmed in writing.
Serving Washington DC, with nearby Northern Virginia and Maryland requests reviewed by service location.
Start with the problem
A fire door inspection request is scheduled work, so the best first step is a clear opening count and building contact—not an emergency-only call path. Property managers, facility teams, building engineers, schools, medical facilities and contractors should prepare the property type, number of openings and any deadline or authority request before calling.
NFPA 80 addresses inspection, testing and maintenance of fire door assemblies, but the standard, adopted code and authority having jurisdiction can affect what a specific building needs. This page is service-planning information, not a legal determination. Share the governing request or project documents when available.
Diagnosis and scope
A useful quote starts with the size and purpose of the inspection. Exact counts are helpful but not required for the first request; an approximate number of doors or openings is enough to begin a scope conversation.
Commercial decision support
An inspection records observed conditions against the agreed scope. Repair changes an opening or its hardware. Keeping those steps distinct makes documentation clearer and lets the property decide how corrections will be authorized.
If a door does not close, latch or secure now, identify that condition when calling. A separate repair visit may be more appropriate than waiting for a broader inspection. Written reports and deficiency-correction services must be confirmed in the estimate because those business capabilities are not assumed.
Service details
The exact checklist belongs in the approved scope. Common review categories include labels, visible damage, clearances, glazing, hinges, latching, closing action and unauthorized field modifications. A site-specific requirement may add or remove items.
What happens next
Call with the service location and opening details. The request is reviewed and the available next step is confirmed directly.
Send the building type, general location, approximate openings, deadline and access constraints.
Clarify the governing request, checklist, reporting format and whether corrections should be priced separately.
Coordinate an escort, occupied hours, restricted areas and any notice the property requires.
Use the agreed deliverable to decide which repair, correction or follow-up scope should be authorized.

Requests may come from an owner, property or facility manager, building engineer, contractor, insurer, consultant or authority. Share the actual request so the service scope matches it.
Choose inspection when you need an opening review or documented findings. Choose repair when a known door, closer, latch or exit device needs corrective work. The scopes can be quoted separately.
Report availability, format, photos and follow-up requirements must be confirmed in the written service scope before scheduling. Prepare what the requesting party needs before calling.
NFPA 80 is a consensus standard concerning fire doors and other opening protectives. Applicable code, adopted edition and enforcement are project-specific; confirm requirements with the authority having jurisdiction or your design/code professional.
