One of the most common questions from Oklahoma City property managers is: how often does my fire door need to be inspected? The answer comes from NFPA 80, adopted by the Oklahoma State Fire Marshal. Here's a clear breakdown.
NFPA 80 requires annual inspection of all fire-rated door assemblies. Some high-traffic facilities may benefit from more frequent inspections. Oklahoma enforces annual fire door inspections through the State Fire Marshal and local AHJs.
Oklahoma enforces these intervals through the State Fire Marshal's Office and your local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Missing a required inspection can result in failed fire marshal visits, fines, and insurance issues.
The simplest approach is to work with a single inspection company that builds a compliance calendar for your building. Instead of tracking multiple inspection dates and vendors, you get one schedule and one consolidated report.
Oklahoma City Fire Protection builds compliance calendars for commercial properties across the OKC metro, so you always know what's due and when.
If an inspection deadline passes, your system is technically out of compliance. A fire marshal visit during that gap can result in a written violation, a deadline to correct, and potentially a fine. Insurance carriers may also question coverage if inspections lapse.
