What to specify

Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
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.

Which workplace rules apply to these doors?

For premises in Elgin, 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 Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, 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

Sites in and around Elgin vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.
