MHCLG has published a list of frequently asked questions (FAQs) for councils on fire doors.

The independent expert advisory panel, appointed to advise on immediate safety action following the Grenfell Tower fire, recommended the department undertake an investigation into the wider fire door market to understand how widespread the problem was.
