A fire officer is more interested that there is a way in for a fireman to
enact a rescue.

Wrong. The primary aim of all fire legislation is for occupants to
be able to escape before the fire service arrive. By the time the
fire service get to a fire it is often far to late to rescue anyone
as it is smoke, not fire which is the major killer. When a fire is
visible from outside a house the occupants are usually dead.
