What to specify
- Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.
- Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
- Emergency devices. Lever or push-pad devices to BS EN 179 for exits used by trained staff.
- Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
- Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
Jobs we can carry out
- 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.
- Installing a leaf-and-a-half steel doorset so equipment can pass through a plant room door when needed.
Door rules for workplaces in Scotland
Doors in Bo'ness 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 Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.
Keeping your site running during the work
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.

Frequently asked questions
Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Bo'ness 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 our Bo'ness fire exit be locked from outside?
Yes. It can be secure from outside, with a key or code device or no external hardware, as long as it always opens from inside using the exit hardware. Never lock or chain a fire exit while people are in the building.
Can you fit fire-rated steel doors in Bo'ness?
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.
