QBCC-licensed fire door certification for Gold Coast body corporates, strata managers and builders — insurance-grade compliance documentation to AS1851 and AS1905.1 that stands up to auditors and insurers.
Certification is only valid under the right licence. Ours is public.
Fire door certification is the paperwork that proves your doors meet the standard — and it's only valid when it comes from an appropriately QBCC-licensed party. A tag, a report or a sign-off from someone without the right licence can be worthless when an insurer or auditor looks closely, which is exactly when it matters most.
Element certifies fire doors across the Gold Coast: existing buildings on their six-monthly AS1851 maintenance cycle, and new construction installed and certified to AS1905.1. Our QBCC licence — #15008767 — is publicly searchable on the QBCC register, so anyone in your committee or on your insurer's side can verify it in seconds.
We record every door individually, confirm its rating and condition against the standard, and issue documentation your strata manager can file, your committee can minute, and your insurer will accept. For new towers, we certify to AS1905.1 so the project reaches handover without a fire door defect list.
Every compliant door carries a tag on the hinge edge. We confirm, reinstate where needed, and record tagging against each door.
A document listing every door, its rating, status and evidence — not a single blanket certificate that tells an auditor nothing.
Documentation formatted for insurers, auditors and committee minutes, backed by a publicly verifiable QBCC licence.
Certification tied to the six-monthly maintenance cycle, so your annual occupier's statement rests on real evidence.
For new construction: doors installed and certified to AS1905.1 so handover is clean and defect-free.
Records structured to drop straight into the building's fire safety log book and support the annual declaration.
Unlicensed certification is no certification.
One of our clients was advised by two other fire companies to repair their recalled Korab doors — work that would have been illegal. The difference a properly licensed certifier makes isn't paperwork for its own sake; it's the difference between a building that's actually compliant and one that only looks it until someone checks.
Element holds QBCC licence #15008767, publicly searchable on the QBCC register. Certification from an unlicensed party isn't valid for insurance purposes — so before you accept any fire door sign-off, ask for the licence number and verify it.
Founded by a qualified shopfitter and joiner — installations and repairs meet AS1905.1, the actual standard an inspector measures against.
We'll tell you when a repair is fine and when a door genuinely needs replacing — clear advice your committee can act on, not upsell.
Itemised, per-door quotes and insurance-grade reports your strata manager can table at the next meeting without translation.

Every door is assessed against AS1851 (existing buildings) or AS1905.1 (new construction), with defects rectified by the same licensed team where required.
QBCC-licensed compliance documentation issued per door — insurance-grade, audit-ready, and formatted for committee minutes and the building's fire safety log book.

AS1905.1 covers the construction and installation of fire doors — it's the standard for new doors and new buildings. AS1851-2012 covers the routine inspection and maintenance of installed fire doors, on the six-monthly cycle. Existing buildings are certified against AS1851 maintenance; new construction is certified to AS1905.1.
Queensland's Building Fire Safety Regulation 2008 requires the body corporate or occupier to complete an annual occupier's statement confirming prescribed fire safety installations have been maintained. Certified six-monthly maintenance records for your fire doors provide the evidence that declaration rests on. The full statement covers all your building's fire safety measures, not doors alone.
Yes. We inspect and assess the doors against the standard on their merits. Where previous work doesn't meet the standard, we'll identify what needs rectifying before the doors can be certified — and we can carry out that work under the same licence.
Phone, email, or the enquiry form — whatever's fastest for you. Every enquiry lands in our job system, and the owner reads each one personally.
No obligation — most enquiries answered the same day.
