Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Louvres and vision. Ventilation louvres for plant and switch rooms, and glazed panels where people need to see through.
Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.
Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.
Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.
Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.

Jobs we can carry out

Changing worn panic bars on fire exits and adjusting the overhead closers so each door latches properly.
Installing a leaf-and-a-half steel doorset so equipment can pass through a plant room door when needed.
Installing a steel staff entrance door with an overhead closer and keypad access beside a loading bay.

Door rules for workplaces in England

Doors in Hinckley 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

Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

Questions from businesses in Hinckley

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

Yes. Where an insurer asks for a formal rating, we supply steel doorsets certified to LPS 1175 and install them to the certified specification. Let us know the rating required so we can quote the right product.

Can you fit fire-rated steel doors in Hinckley?

Yes. We supply fire-resisting steel doorsets with the manufacturer's test evidence for the rating your fire strategy needs, and install them strictly to the manufacturer's instructions, including seals, gaps and approved hardware.

Can our Hinckley fire exit be locked from outside?

Yes. It can be secure from outside, with a key or code device or no external hardware, as long as it always opens from inside using the exit hardware. Never lock or chain a fire exit while people are in the building.
