What we fit in Peterhead

Emergency devices. Staff-only exits used by people who know the door can take BS EN 179 lever or pad hardware.
Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.
Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.
Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.

Typical scopes of work

Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.

Door rules for workplaces in Scotland

Doors in Peterhead workplaces are covered by regulation 18 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992: a door that can be pushed open from either side must give, when closed, a clear view of the space close to both sides, which is why swing doors on traffic routes have vision panels. Under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.

How the work is organised

For busy sites in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
