Fire check record

Our record form is designed to be a short and simple document to keep track of regular fire safety checks. What’s covered?

Cut down

Most fire safety logbooks include separate sheets for fire alarms, fire doors, extinguishers, etc. This is fine if you have a number of things to check, but if your equipment is much simpler, then our Fire Check Record is likely to be more suited to your needs. Unlike other logbooks, this covers everything on a single page and it provides enough space to record twelve months’ checks.

Set out

The first part of the document gives explicit instruction on what to check.

Record

The next part of the document provides space to record what has been checked and when. It’s split into four columns: “Fire alarm”; “Fire extinguishers”; “Fire doors”; and, “Escape routes”.

What to do

In each column the individual completing the check is asked to give their initials, identify the date on which the checks were completed and indicate whether there is a defect with the equipment. If there is, they are directed to complete the “Defect report” at the bottom of the page.
