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.
- Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.
- Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
- Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
- Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.
- Replacing a rotted timber fire exit door with a galvanised steel doorset and a BS EN 1125 panic bar.
- Supplying 60-minute fire-resisting steel doorsets for the compartment walls set out in a building's fire strategy.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Ely, 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Most installations in Ely 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.
