This daily pre-opening facility checklist helps teams verify that a venue is safe and ready before doors open. Tasks include inspecting front doors and shutters for damage, checking the fire panel for faults, confirming fire exits are unobstructed and open via push bars, ensuring internal doors with closers shut automatically, clearing corridors of obstructions, and validating CCTV equipment, monitors, cameras, and time stamps. Use it to capture findings, assign follow-ups, and record signatures to support compliance and operational readiness in venues such as sports and leisure centers.
