What we fit in Tiverton

Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.

Emergency devices. Lever or push-pad devices to BS EN 179 for exits used by trained staff.

What this work can involve

Installing a leaf-and-a-half steel doorset so equipment can pass through a plant room door when needed.
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.

Door rules for workplaces in England

Doors in Tiverton 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.

Planning the work around your site
