Gaffer for
fire door inspectors.
Since the Building Safety Act, a responsible person for a high-rise has to check communal fire doors quarterly and flat entrance doors yearly, and be able to prove both. Gaffer treats every door as its own inspection, with the gap check to BS 8214 and the door closer test signed on the phone, and puts the next round in the diary the day this one finishes. Quote, schedule, certify, invoice and get paid — with the 12 trade documents fire door inspectors actually use already in the account.
Where two names look alike they are different documents — a notification is not the certificate that follows it, and two schemes covering the same work each want their own form. If you think one is missing, or that one of these is redundant, say so and we will change the pack.


Priced quote templates for fire door inspectors, your own price book and good-better-best options. Customers accept and pay a deposit from their phone.
12 trade documents ready for fire door inspectors — 9 written for this trade, 3 shared with others — filled in on the phone, signed on site and emailed as a PDF before you leave.
One tap raises the invoice from the accepted quote, nets off the deposit and sends a Pay Now link. Reminders chase for you.
Certificates and services with an expiry date become next year’s work. Gaffer texts the customer a booking link before it lapses.
