What to specify

Panic hardware. Where visitors or the public might need to escape, we fit full-width panic bars to BS EN 1125.
Emergency devices. Lever or push-pad devices to BS EN 179 for exits used by trained staff.
Fire-rated doorsets. Fire-resisting steel doors with the manufacturer's test evidence, fitted to its instructions.
Security options. Hinge bolts, multi-point locks and LPS 1175 rated doorsets.
Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.

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.
Supplying 60-minute fire-resisting steel doorsets for the compartment walls set out in a building's fire strategy.
Installing a leaf-and-a-half steel doorset so equipment can pass through a plant room door when needed.

Door rules for workplaces in England

Doors in Dartford 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.

How the work is organised

Most installations in Dartford can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
