What we fit in Norfolk

Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.
Fire-rated doorsets. Fire-resisting steel doors with the manufacturer's test evidence, fitted to its instructions.
Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.
Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.

Typical scopes of work

Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.
Supplying 60-minute fire-resisting steel doorsets for the compartment walls set out in a building's fire strategy.
Installing a leaf-and-a-half steel doorset so equipment can pass through a plant room door when needed.

Which workplace rules apply to these doors?

For premises in Norfolk, 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.

Planning the work around your site

If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.

Frequently asked questions

Can a steel door at our Norfolk 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.

Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Norfolk 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 our Norfolk 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.
