בבא בתרא קלו

The Yammer Rav was once approached by the owner of a warehouse who told him that he was planning on making a בוראי מאורי האש on his building to collect the insurance.  “But,” the man asked, “there are מזוזות on the doors and I know that it’s אסור to remove them and it’s אסור to cause them to burn.  What should I do?”  The רב answered: “Remove them to examine them.”  The warehouse owner asked whether there is a מקור for that.  “Yes,” replied the רב.  “On ערב פסח before we do the שריפה we do the בדיקה.”
