Options for steel personnel and fire exit doors in Ilford
- Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.
- 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.
- Louvres and vision. Ventilation louvres for plant and switch rooms, and glazed panels where people need to see through.
- Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.
- Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
- Installing a leaf-and-a-half steel doorset so equipment can pass through a plant room door when needed.
Door rules for workplaces in England
Doors in Ilford 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 Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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.
