Options that matter on site
- Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
- Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
- Panic hardware. Where visitors or the public might need to escape, we fit full-width panic bars to BS EN 1125.
- Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
- Louvres and vision. Ventilation louvres for plant and switch rooms, and glazed panels where people need to see through.
What this work can involve
- 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.
- Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Stretford, 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
Most installations in Stretford can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Questions from businesses in Stretford
Can a steel door at our Stretford unit be security rated?
Yes. Where an insurer asks for a formal rating, we supply steel doorsets certified to LPS 1175 and install them to the certified specification. Let us know the rating required so we can quote the right product.
Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Stretford site?
If members of the public or people unfamiliar with the exit may use it, panic hardware to BS EN 1125 is normally required. Exits used only by trained staff who know the door can use emergency devices to BS EN 179. If in doubt, choose BS EN 1125.
How long does it take to replace a steel door in Stretford?
Most single steel doorsets are fitted in a day, including removal of the old door, fixing the new frame and making good. Made-to-measure doorsets have a manufacturing lead time, which we confirm with the quote.
