Why Birmingham flats need a Regulation 10 certificate
Birmingham's rapid city-centre regeneration has produced a wave of high-rise residential blocks, many of which fall under Regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for flat entrance door evidence.
Regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 places a legal duty on the Responsible Person of any building containing two or more domestic premises to inspect flat entrance doors at least annually. Every Birmingham flat that opens onto a communal escape route is in scope. Read the full Regulation 10 flat entrance door hub for the inspection checklist and free downloadable evidence packs.

Frequently asked questions — Birmingham
Does Regulation 10 apply to flats in Birmingham?
Yes. Regulation 10 of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 applies to every block of two or more flats in England, including Birmingham. Flat entrance doors that open onto a communal escape route must be inspected at least annually, with quarterly checks of common-parts fire doors in buildings over 18 m.
How much does a flat fire door certificate cost in Birmingham?
R-10 issues a Building Safety Act 2022-aligned flat entrance door certificate from £25 per door anywhere in Birmingham — typically 70–90% less than commissioning a local surveyor. Certificates are issued within 48 hours.
Do you cover all Birmingham postcodes?
Yes — we cover B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B15, B16 and the wider West Midlands area. The R-10 process is online: upload photos of your door, we verify and issue the certificate. No site-visit fee, no postcode surcharge.
Is the certificate accepted by Birmingham managing agents and lenders?
R-10 certificates are third-party verified, reference BS 8214 and PAS 24, and are aligned to the Building Safety Act 2022. They have been accepted by major UK conveyancers, lenders and managing agents — including those operating in Birmingham — for LPE1 packs, remortgages and EWS1 supporting documentation.
Who is the Responsible Person for flat entrance doors in Birmingham?
In most Birmingham blocks the freeholder or managing agent is the Responsible Person under Article 3 of the Fire Safety Order, but the leaseholder typically owns the flat entrance door itself. Both parties benefit from a documented FD30S certificate per door.
