Ribbonmark is the field-to-office record for fire door installation and inspection. Operatives capture evidence on site — offline if they have to — and the office issues per-door certificates and a complete, auditable handover pack for the building.
Built around the Building Safety Act 2022 and the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022.
Fire-door duties now demand a verifiable, enduring record for every doorset — who fitted it, what went in, how it was measured, and the evidence to back it. In practice that record is scattered across camera rolls, paper checklists and spreadsheets. When a safety case is questioned, reconstructing the trail is slow and hard to trust. Ribbonmark makes the record a by-product of doing the job properly.
Three steps, one continuous record — from the door to the dutyholder.
Every doorset logged — location, type and condition on record.
A typed checklist grounded in BS 8214 and BWF-Certifire guidance — perimeter and threshold gaps, seals, hinge count, self-closer force — with photos and product selection from your approved catalogue. Real measurements against real tolerances, not a free-text box.
And it works fully offline. A basement or stair core doesn't interrupt the day: everything queues on the device and syncs, in order and without duplicates, the moment signal returns.
A door can't be marked fitted until the evidence minimum is met — the server enforces it, and the operative is told exactly what's missing while they're still standing at the door.
An out-of-tolerance measurement doesn't silently block the job: it becomes a disclosed deviation, frozen into the record, needing sign-off from someone with authority to accept it. Departures are authorised by name — never waved through, never buried.
Every certificate is generated from the evidence frozen at the moment of issue — measurements, photos, products and their datasheets, and any disclosed deviation with who authorised it. Nothing can be quietly edited; re-rendering reproduces the same document.
Each building rolls up into one handover pack: a section per doorset with its full photographic record embedded, and a deduplicated datasheet appendix. The record the dutyholder keeps for the life of the building.
Operatives pick from materials your office has approved, and each selection carries its manufacturer datasheet straight into the record — the thread on the components, not just the door.
Advice on a certificate says who raised it — a disclosed deviation, the installer at the door, or the office at issue. Three voices, kept distinct.
Every organisation's data is separated at the database level, not just in application code — so one customer's records can never reach another's.
Shaped through a discovery programme with working fire-door installers — and enforced by the system, not by asking people to be careful.
Fire-safety records outlive projects, contracts and staff. Ribbonmark is engineered around that reality.
Your data — including evidence photos — is hosted in United Kingdom regions.
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest across the platform.
Per-tenant separation enforced in the data store, not left to application logic.
Designed to support ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus as we mature.
Yes. Checklists, photos and status changes queue durably on the device — a basement or stairwell core doesn't interrupt the day's work. Everything syncs automatically when a connection returns, in order, with no duplicates. Losing signal never loses evidence.
The server enforces the evidence minimum — the required checks and the after-fit photo — before a doorset can move to fitted. If evidence is short, the operative is told exactly what's missing while they're still at the door. The gate can't be skipped from the app, and grades can't be self-upgraded.
An out-of-tolerance value doesn't silently block the job — it becomes a disclosed deviation, frozen into the certificate, with a recommendation attached and sign-off required from someone with the authority to accept it. Departures from the standard are authorised by name, never waved through or hidden.
No. A certificate freezes its evidence — measurements, photos, products, deviations, recommendations — at the moment of issue. Re-rendering it reproduces the same document. If something changes at the door later, that's a new assessment and a new record, not an edit to history.
You do. Your records are yours to export, and every organisation's data is isolated at the database level. Hosting — including evidence photos — is in United Kingdom regions, and data is encrypted in transit and at rest.
