Options that matter on site
- Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
- 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.
- Fire-rated doorsets. Fire-resisting steel doors with the manufacturer's test evidence, fitted to its instructions.
- Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
- Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.
- Installing a steel staff entrance door with an overhead closer and keypad access beside a loading bay.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Runcorn, 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
