Options for steel personnel and fire exit doors in Bow

Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.
Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.
Emergency devices. Staff-only exits used by people who know the door can take BS EN 179 lever or pad hardware.
Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.

What this work can involve

Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.
Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.

Which workplace rules apply to these doors?

For premises in Bow, 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.

How the work is organised

For busy sites in Greater London 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.
