What to specify

Panic hardware. Where visitors or the public might need to escape, we fit full-width panic bars to BS EN 1125.
Emergency devices. Staff-only exits used by people who know the door can take BS EN 179 lever or pad hardware.
Security options. Hinge bolts, multi-point locks and LPS 1175 rated doorsets.
Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.
Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.

Typical scopes of work

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.
Supplying 60-minute fire-resisting steel doorsets for the compartment walls set out in a building's fire strategy.

Door rules for workplaces in England

Doors in Sale 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.

Frequently asked questions

Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Sale site?
