Can the roof door of the rental house be locked?

No, it belongs to public land and is jointly owned by the residents of the building.

This does not meet the requirements of fire control. It may be that a child ran to the top of the building to climb, which led to unsafe factors and the property management could not be locked. Everyone should carry out safety education for children at home, fulfill their guardianship responsibilities, prevent children from climbing on the roof, and ask property management to open the roof door at the same time.

According to the fire code, the fire doors of evacuation passages in high-rise buildings cannot be locked for a long time, and can be closed, but they cannot be locked. In case of fire, people can be evacuated smoothly, and the community is generally unlocked. When the fire broke out, the elevator stopped and we had to take the evacuation stairs. Therefore, no one can bear the responsibility for the evacuation and casualties caused by the fire. Especially high-rise buildings.

The roof is a public place belonging to the owner, and the property has no right to lock the door. There are usually elevators on the top of high-rise buildings, but the elevators are also locked. For the doors on the roof, in most communities, they are not locked, but open to the owners to dry clothes. This should be negotiated with the property. Don't lock the door on the roof.

The platform door leading to the top floor cannot be locked. The roof is a fire escape, and the roof escape door is one of the important facilities for fire safety. In case of fire, residents can evacuate to the roof platform for temporary refuge and wait for rescue.

According to the Code for Fire Protection Design of High-rise Civil Buildings (6. 1. 16), public evacuation doors of high-rise buildings should be opened in the evacuation direction, and sliding doors, hanging doors and turnstiles should not be used. In order to prevent outsiders from entering at will, the evacuation doors in crowded places should be equipped with devices that can be quickly opened without using any instruments such as keys in case of fire, and use tips should be set in obvious positions.
