What to specify
- Panic hardware. Where visitors or the public might need to escape, we fit full-width panic bars to BS EN 1125.
- Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
- Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
- Emergency devices. Staff-only exits used by people who know the door can take BS EN 179 lever or pad hardware.
- Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
What this work can involve
- Installing a steel staff entrance door with an overhead closer and keypad access beside a loading bay.
- Changing worn panic bars on fire exits and adjusting the overhead closers so each door latches properly.
- Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
Door rules for workplaces in Wales
Doors in Carmarthen 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, as it applies in Wales, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.
Keeping your site running during the work
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.

Your questions about steel personnel and fire exit doors
Do you repair fire exit doors across Dyfed?
Yes. We repair and replace panic bars, emergency devices, closers, hinges and locks on steel doors across Dyfed. Repair visits are chargeable, and on fire-rated doors we only fit hardware covered by the door's test evidence.
Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Carmarthen site?
If members of the public or people unfamiliar with the exit may use it, panic hardware to BS EN 1125 is normally required. Exits used only by trained staff who know the door can use emergency devices to BS EN 179. If in doubt, choose BS EN 1125.
Can a steel door at our Carmarthen unit be security rated?
Yes. Where an insurer asks for a formal rating, we supply steel doorsets certified to LPS 1175 and install them to the certified specification. Let us know the rating required so we can quote the right product.
