Options that matter on site

Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.

Which workplace rules apply to these doors?

For premises in Grantham, the Workplace Regulations 1992 set the basics: doors suitably constructed, swing doors giving a clear view through when closed, and maintenance under regulation 5. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, an emergency exit door must open easily in the direction of travel and must not be locked or fastened so it cannot be opened immediately in an emergency.

How the work is organised

For busy sites in Lincolnshire the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.

Questions from businesses in Grantham

Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Grantham 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.

Can a steel door at our Grantham 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.

Do you repair fire exit doors across Lincolnshire?

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