Aberdeen council bosses have issued fresh fire safety advice to high rise tenants.
Councils across the country have put in refreshed fire advice after the horrific blaze at Grenfell tower in London in June, 2017 which killed 72 people.
The Granite City contains dozens of blocks, but the council has said the design of them stops smoke and fire spreading.
None of the high rises has cladding similar to Grenfell.
Advice issued includes leaving your home quickly and closing doors behind you should a fire break out, not using the lifts to escape, ensuring a working smoke detector is in your home and not smoking in communal areas.
Residents have also been warned not to let strangers enter the building and to keep access doors, drying rooms and bin rooms locked.
A statement issued alongside the guidance reads: “The safety and security of our tenants and residents is paramount and we continuously inspect our properties to ensure they meet the required safety standards and regulations.
“The materials and fittings within a multi-storey are designed to prevent fire and smoke spreading.
“All of our over-cladded buildings were designed to comply with Scottish Building Regulations, and have been subject to building warrant approval, detailed design and specifications showing compliance with regulations and an inspection regime.
“It is important to note that all materials employed in the over-cladding are fire resistant and fire stops are incorporated to cavities at party walls, party floors and around windows, which encloses the cavity area to further prevent any risk of fire spreading across the surface of the building.”
