Options that matter on site
- Panic hardware. Where visitors or the public might need to escape, we fit full-width panic bars to BS EN 1125.
- Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
- Emergency devices. Staff-only exits used by people who know the door can take BS EN 179 lever or pad hardware.
- Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.
- Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
Typical scopes of work
- Changing worn panic bars on fire exits and adjusting the overhead closers so each door latches properly.
- Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.
- Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Bristol, the Workplace Regulations 1992 set the basics: doors suitably constructed, swing doors giving a clear view through when closed, and maintenance under regulation 5. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, an emergency exit door must open easily in the direction of travel and must not be locked or fastened so it cannot be opened immediately in an emergency.
Planning the work around your site
Sites in and around Bristol vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
