What to specify
- Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.
- 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.
- Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
- Security options. Hinge bolts, multi-point locks and LPS 1175 rated doorsets.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.
- Changing worn panic bars on fire exits and adjusting the overhead closers so each door latches properly.
- Replacing a rotted timber fire exit door with a galvanised steel doorset and a BS EN 1125 panic bar.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Kirkby-in-Ashfield, 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
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.
