Town: Woolwich
Postcode district: SE18
Area: Greater London
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.
Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
Security options. Hinge bolts, multi-point locks and LPS 1175 rated doorsets.

Typical scopes of work

Supplying 60-minute fire-resisting steel doorsets for the compartment walls set out in a building's fire strategy.
Changing worn panic bars on fire exits and adjusting the overhead closers so each door latches properly.
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 Woolwich 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.

Planning the work around your site

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.
