For people in the line of block management and private businesses, as well as landlords, it is vital that whoever is in control of the premises, undertakes the responsibility for the safety of anyone in it, whether employed, resident or just visiting the building. As well as ensuring that all exits are kept clear and unobstructed at all times, the property owner is also responsible for making sure emergency routes and exits must directly lead to a place of safety.

It is of vital importance that external fire exits and the structural steel staircases leading off them are safe for in the event of a fire. Over time, the steel staircases outside a building which allow for an emergency exit from a higher level may well become a danger themselves. Exposed to rain and sea salt air, your steel staircase will rust and become unsafe. The repercussions of an unsafe fire exit are disastrous and could lead to moral and legal difficulties. The route which you provide escapees with in the event of a fire must be structurally sound and maintained.
