What to specify
- Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
- Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.
- Fire-rated doorsets. Fire-resisting steel doors with the manufacturer's test evidence, fitted to its instructions.
- Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.
- Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.
What this work can involve
- Replacing a rotted timber fire exit door with a galvanised steel doorset and a BS EN 1125 panic bar.
- Supplying 60-minute fire-resisting steel doorsets for the compartment walls set out in a building's fire strategy.
- Installing a leaf-and-a-half steel doorset so equipment can pass through a plant room door when needed.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Barnes, 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
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.

Questions from businesses in Barnes
Can a steel door at our Barnes 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 Barnes?
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.
Can our Barnes 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.
