Steel personnel and fire exit doors in Johnstone

The short version

Each steel door project in Johnstone starts with a free survey of the opening, escape route and security needs, followed by a written fixed price before any work starts on site.

Town: Johnstone
Postcode district: PA5
Area: Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire
Survey: Free for new installations

What to specify

Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
Emergency devices. Staff-only exits used by people who know the door can take BS EN 179 lever or pad hardware.
Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.
Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
Louvres and vision. Louvred leaves for plant rooms and vision panels where visibility helps.

Typical scopes of work

Supplying 60-minute fire-resisting steel doorsets for the compartment walls set out in a building's fire strategy.
Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.
Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.

Door rules for workplaces in Scotland

Doors in Johnstone workplaces are covered by regulation 18 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992: a door that can be pushed open from either side must give, when closed, a clear view of the space close to both sides, which is why swing doors on traffic routes have vision panels. Under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.

Access, phasing and timing

For busy sites in Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire 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.

Steel personnel and fire exit doors in Johnstone: your questions

Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Johnstone 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.

Yes. We repair and replace panic bars, emergency devices, closers, hinges and locks on steel doors across Renfrewshire and Dunbartonshire. 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 Johnstone 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.
