The short version
Plant rooms, switch rooms and back doors in Hampshire need doors that are tough and secure. We fit steel doors with louvres, hinge bolts, multi-point locks and closers to suit each opening.

Options for steel personnel and fire exit doors in Hampshire
- Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
- Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.
- Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
- Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.
- Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Changing worn panic bars on fire exits and adjusting the overhead closers so each door latches properly.
- Installing a steel staff entrance door with an overhead closer and keypad access beside a loading bay.
- Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Hampshire, 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
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.

Questions from businesses in Hampshire
Can a steel door at our Hampshire 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 Hampshire 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.
Do you repair fire exit doors across the South East?
Yes. We repair and replace panic bars, emergency devices, closers, hinges and locks on steel doors across the South East. Repair visits are chargeable, and on fire-rated doors we only fit hardware covered by the door's test evidence.
