Options that matter on site
- Emergency devices. Lever or push-pad devices to BS EN 179 for exits used by trained staff.
- Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
- Louvres and vision. Ventilation louvres for plant and switch rooms, and glazed panels where people need to see through.
- Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.
- Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.
- Replacing a rotted timber fire exit door with a galvanised steel doorset and a BS EN 1125 panic bar.
- Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.
Door rules for workplaces in Scotland
Doors in Irvine 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
Most installations in Irvine can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
