Options that matter on site
- Louvres and vision. Ventilation louvres for plant and switch rooms, and glazed panels where people need to see through.
- Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
- Fire-rated doorsets. Fire-resisting steel doors with the manufacturer's test evidence, fitted to its instructions.
- Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
- Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
Jobs we can carry out
- Replacing a rotted timber fire exit door with a galvanised steel doorset and a BS EN 1125 panic bar.
- 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.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Salford, 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
