Openings Studio Mobile App streamlines openings and fire door inspections

Key project challenges

  • Creating a clear inspection protocol which — in line with the UK’s post-Grenfell public inquiry* — would improve safety and reassure owners and residents
  • Easy digitalizing of inspection reports to make workflows more efficient and further improve the service they provide, including for corrective works
  • Increasing the transparency of the inspection and compliance process by maintaining a reliable, up-to-date source of specification info across the life-cycle

Solution

Doorview selected Openings StudioTM Mobile App from ASSA ABLOY as the optimal solution for streamlining the fire inspection process and offering the in-depth reporting they sought. With the Mobile App, Doorview help to maintain every Golden Thread** — “a building’s single source of truth”. The Mobile App allows Doorview to instantly share fire door inspection reports along with a remedial action list — which reassures the client that their building is compliant and safe for all residents, service providers and other users. Thus, Openings Studio software becomes a vital, constantly updated source across the whole lifecycle of the building. Widely used by architects and building specifiers during design and construction phases, the new Openings Studio mobile app now equips inspectors with powerful and speedy reporting tools. Thanks to the thorough training provided by ASSA ABLOY specification experts, Doorview were able to use the specification information stored in Openings Studio to speed up inspection work and simplify the process of creating and sharing the quote for any corrective work required for compliance, and subsequently update their report with images once works were complete.

It is faster and more efficient to share digital reports
