Steel personnel and fire exit doors in Welshpool

The short version

Steel personnel doors and fire exit doors for warehouses, factories, plant rooms and trade units in Welshpool. We survey each opening, specify the right hardware and rating, then supply and fit a complete steel doorset.

Town: Welshpool
Postcode district: SY21
Area: Powys
Survey: Free for new installations

Options that matter on site

Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.
Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.
Louvres and vision. Ventilation louvres for plant and switch rooms, and glazed panels where people need to see through.

Examples of work we can quote for

Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.
Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
Installing a steel staff entrance door with an overhead closer and keypad access beside a loading bay.

Which workplace rules apply to these doors?

For premises in Welshpool, 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.

How the work is organised

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.

Steel personnel and fire exit doors in Welshpool: your questions

Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Welshpool 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.

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

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.

Can a steel door at our Welshpool 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.
