Workplaces are adapting to lithium battery devices with storage, charging & new policies. But #firedoor safety lags:
<50% confident doors could contain an e-bike fire
1/3 saw issues in past year
17% don’t know how long doors hold
Only 29% report faults lnkd.in/gt9-Vdg
Over 50% have seen charging issues: overheating, burning smells, sparks & even fire. 1 in 5 charge devices at work. Yet 18% see propped fire doors & 13% blocked doors. #FireTravelsFast only proper fire door use can stop it. Learn more: firedoorsafetyweek.co.uk#FDSW2025#FireDoors
Recent BWF #FDSW2025 data shows 35% of residents notice fire door issues (propped open, blocked, gaps, faulty closers). Lithium battery fires are rising, yet 2/3 never report faulty doors. Reminder: “Fire Travels Fast” Proper working #firedoors save lives. lnkd.in/dStC8UW
We check kettles, chargers & bulbs for safety, yet often overlook #firedoors. 🚪🔥
These life-saving barriers are too often neglected.

Fire Door Safety Week 2023 has concluded. This year’s theme, ‘False Sense of Safety,’ highlighted the gap between perceived safety and real fire risks, urging everyone to identify and report fire door issues. Let’s keep it a priority year-round.lnkd.in/evaSQYgW#FDSW2024
The @FireDoorAll gap testers offer a quick way to check fire door gaps, ensuring they’re not big enough for smoke or fire to pass through. Remember, they don’t replace a full inspection—regular checks are essential. Purchase gap tester here lnkd.in/evaSQYgW#FDSW2024
How confident are you in your workplace’s fire safety?
