Options that matter on site

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.
Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.

Jobs we can carry out

Installing a steel staff entrance door with an overhead closer and keypad access beside a loading bay.
Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.
Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.

Door rules for workplaces in England

Doors in Cheshire 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 Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.

Access, phasing and timing

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
