Town: Newtown
Postcode district: SY16
Area: Powys
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Louvres and vision. Ventilation louvres for plant and switch rooms, and glazed panels where people need to see through.
Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.

Typical scopes of work

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.
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 Newtown, 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, as it applies in Wales, 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.

Access, phasing and timing

Sites in and around Newtown vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Questions from businesses in Newtown

How long does it take to replace a steel door in Newtown?

Most single steel doorsets are fitted in a day, including removal of the old door, fixing the new frame and making good. Made-to-measure doorsets have a manufacturing lead time, which we confirm with the quote.

Do you repair fire exit doors across Powys?

Yes. We repair and replace panic bars, emergency devices, closers, hinges and locks on steel doors across Powys. 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 Newtown 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.
