What we fit in Lanarkshire

Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.

Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.

What this work can involve

Changing worn panic bars on fire exits and adjusting the overhead closers so each door latches properly.
Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.
Installing a leaf-and-a-half steel doorset so equipment can pass through a plant room door when needed.

Door rules for workplaces in Scotland

Doors in Lanarkshire 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 Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.

Planning the work around your site

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.
