Options that matter on site

Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.
Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
Louvres and vision. Ventilation louvres for plant and switch rooms, and glazed panels where people need to see through.
Emergency devices. Lever or push-pad devices to BS EN 179 for exits used by trained staff.

What this work can involve

Supplying 60-minute fire-resisting steel doorsets for the compartment walls set out in a building's fire strategy.
Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
Replacing a rotted timber fire exit door with a galvanised steel doorset and a BS EN 1125 panic bar.

Door rules for workplaces in Scotland

Doors in Coatbridge 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

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.

Frequently asked questions

Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Coatbridge site?

If members of the public or people unfamiliar with the exit may use it, panic hardware to BS EN 1125 is normally required. Exits used only by trained staff who know the door can use emergency devices to BS EN 179. If in doubt, choose BS EN 1125.

Do you repair fire exit doors across Lanarkshire?

Yes. We repair and replace panic bars, emergency devices, closers, hinges and locks on steel doors across Lanarkshire. Repair visits are chargeable, and on fire-rated doors we only fit hardware covered by the door's test evidence.

Can a steel door at our Coatbridge unit be security rated?
