    Fire Door Inspection FAQs for Oklahoma City Businesses

    Everything Oklahoma City property managers ask about fire door inspections — answered in plain English.

    Common fire door inspection questions

    How often do fire doors need to be inspected? NFPA 80 requires annual inspection of all fire-rated door assemblies by a qualified inspector. Oklahoma enforces this through the State Fire Marshal and local AHJs.

    What makes a fire door fail inspection? Common failures include damaged doors or frames, excessive clearances, non-functioning self-closers, missing or incorrect hinges, unlisted hardware, blocked or propped-open doors, and missing or illegible fire labels.

    Do you repair fire doors? No. We inspect and document fire doors to NFPA 80. Any deficiencies are reported for your qualified contractor to repair or replace. We can re-inspect after repairs to confirm compliance.

    Can staff prop open fire doors? No. Fire doors must remain closed and latching at all times. Door stops and props are a common fire code violation and can result in a fire marshal citation.
