Doors, fixtures and demises – Nearly Legal
‘Marlborough Knightsbridge Management Ltd v Fivaz (2021) EWCA Civ 989. In which the Court of Appeal grapple with whether a front entrance door to a leasehold flat is a “landlord’s fixture” or something else. This was the landlord’s second appeal from the Upper Tribunal decision we noted here, where the UT had found that the door was part of the demise under the lease, not a landlord’s fixture. The overall issue was that the leaseholder, Mr Fivaz, had replaced the front door to his flats. The landlord contended that this was a breach of lease under a covenant.’
