Steel personnel and fire exit doors in Chepstow

The short version

Need a new fire exit door at your premises in Chepstow? We fit steel doors with panic bars to BS EN 1125 or emergency exit devices to BS EN 179, chosen according to who will actually use the exit.

Town: Chepstow
Postcode district: NP16
Area: Gwent
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.
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.

What this work can involve

Installing a leaf-and-a-half steel doorset so equipment can pass through a plant room door when needed.
Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.

Door rules for workplaces in Wales

Doors in Chepstow 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, as it applies in Wales, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.

Keeping your site running during the work

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Your questions about steel personnel and fire exit doors

Can a steel door at our Chepstow 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.

Can you fit fire-rated steel doors in Chepstow?

Yes. We supply fire-resisting steel doorsets with the manufacturer's test evidence for the rating your fire strategy needs, and install them strictly to the manufacturer's instructions, including seals, gaps and approved hardware.

Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Chepstow 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.
