Answer

What fire safety checks should older buildings in Mallorca have?

Older buildings should be checked for electrical safety, working smoke detectors and doors that help contain smoke and fire. Stairwells and escape routes should also be kept clear, because blocked access can make evacuation much harder. In buildings used for seasonal rentals, simple safety information for residents and guests is especially important.
