What to specify
- Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
- Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
- 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.
- 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
- Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.
- 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 Inverness, 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
Where a door is being replaced, the opening has to be made secure at the end of each day. We plan strip-out, any new framing and the new door so the gap is never left open overnight unless you have agreed temporary measures.
