Town: Hull
Postcode district: HU1
Area: East Riding of Yorkshire
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.
Panic hardware. Where visitors or the public might need to escape, we fit full-width panic bars to BS EN 1125.
Emergency devices. Staff-only exits used by people who know the door can take BS EN 179 lever or pad hardware.
Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.

Examples of work we can quote for

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.
Changing worn panic bars on fire exits and adjusting the overhead closers so each door latches properly.

Door rules for workplaces in England

Doors in Hull 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

Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Your questions about steel personnel and fire exit doors

Can you fit fire-rated steel doors in Hull?

Yes. We supply fire-resisting steel doorsets with the manufacturer's test evidence for the rating your fire strategy needs, and install them strictly to the manufacturer's instructions, including seals, gaps and approved hardware.

Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Hull 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 Hull 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.
