What is a Fire Safety Notice?

Fire Safety Notices are signs/stickers affixed to residents’ doors as reference in case of emergency. There are Notices for Combustible buildings and Non-Combustible buildings.

The law states that if a resident is non-responsive (if the affidavit is not completed and returned by “the next April 30th following the date of mailing”), you’ll need to inspect the unit within one year of the mailing being sent. 

You’re already visiting units for required inspections anyway – in many cases, more frequently than once every 3 years. Adding a step in your existing unit inspections to snap a photo of the back of each door ensures you have picture proof of compliance. That makes this path the simplest, least intrusive way to comply, and doesn’t throw off work your team already has in place. And for In Check users, you can even automatically trigger follow-up work to replace any missing or damaged Notices.

(c) Fire Safety Guide Requirements (1) Purpose.

A separate fire safety guide shall be prepared for each building, except buildings that have common means of egress.

(C) The number of floors in the building, above and below ground level. (D) The year the building was constructed. (E) Whether the building is of combustible or non-combustible construction.

(F) Whether the building is equipped with a sprinkler system, and if so, whether such sprinkler system protects the entire building or only certain areas, and, if only certain areas, specifying those areas (for example, “the compactor chute on each floor and the compactor room and boiler room in the basement”). (G) Whether the building is equipped with a fire alarm system, and if so: (1) the general location of the manual fire alarm boxes of such system (for example, “by the main entrance of building and next to the stairwell at each end of the corridor on each floor”); and (2) whether the manual fire alarm boxes, when activated, transmit an alarm to an approved central station that notifies the Department.
