Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.
Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.
Emergency devices. Lever or push-pad devices to BS EN 179 for exits used by trained staff.
Panic hardware. Where visitors or the public might need to escape, we fit full-width panic bars to BS EN 1125.

What this work can involve

Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
Changing worn panic bars on fire exits and adjusting the overhead closers so each door latches properly.
Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.

Door rules for workplaces in England

Doors in Mitcham 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.

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.
