What we fit in Gloucestershire
- Security options. Hinge bolts, multi-point locks and LPS 1175 rated doorsets.
- Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
- Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.
- Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.

What this work can involve
- Installing a steel staff entrance door with an overhead closer and keypad access beside a loading bay.
- Supplying 60-minute fire-resisting steel doorsets for the compartment walls set out in a building's fire strategy.
- Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Gloucestershire, 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.
Access, phasing and timing
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.

Steel personnel and fire exit doors in Gloucestershire: your questions
Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Gloucestershire 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 Gloucestershire 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.
How long does it take to replace a steel door in Gloucestershire?
Most single steel doorsets are fitted in a day, including removal of the old door, fixing the new frame and making good. Made-to-measure doorsets have a manufacturing lead time, which we confirm with the quote.
