Options for steel personnel and fire exit doors in Airdrie
- Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
- Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
- Emergency devices. Lever or push-pad devices to BS EN 179 for exits used by trained staff.

Typical scopes of work
- Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.
- Changing worn panic bars on fire exits and adjusting the overhead closers so each door latches properly.

Door rules for workplaces in Scotland
Doors in Airdrie 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.
How the work is organised
Most installations in Airdrie 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.
