Options that matter on site

Emergency devices. Lever or push-pad devices to BS EN 179 for exits used by trained staff.
Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
Louvres and vision. Ventilation louvres for plant and switch rooms, and glazed panels where people need to see through.

Which workplace rules apply to these doors?

For premises in Billericay, 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.

Planning the work around your site

For busy sites in Essex the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
