What to specify
- Fire-rated doorsets. Fire-resisting steel doors with the manufacturer's test evidence, fitted to its instructions.
- Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.
- Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.
- Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
- Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
- Replacing a rotted timber fire exit door with a galvanised steel doorset and a BS EN 1125 panic bar.
- Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.
Door rules for workplaces in England
Doors in Fareham 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
For busy sites in Hampshire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
